Obituary for Robert Alan Johnston

Robert Alan Johnston, 52, passed away on Monday, January 27, 2020. Robert was born September 13, 1967 in Fort Wayne, Indiana, the son of Stuart and Theresa (Niegos) Johnston. He was a 1986 graduate of Northrop High School where he competed on the speech and debate team, ran track and played basketball. Robert received his Bachelor’s degree from Wabash College, and a Master’s degree in Archeology from Florida State University. He was a proud member of the Phi Gamma Delta fraternity and Studebaker Museum Club. He spent a career working in the financial industry, most recently with Nicholas Financial.
