Ian D. Johnstone
1930-2011
Ian, age 81, emigrated from Scotland in 1955 with former wife, Isabel. He was a master machinist and worked for several machine shops before opening his own shop, Arbroath Tool Specialty. During his last few years, he was a consulting machinist for Del Trans. Ian attended and was a member of Christiana Presbyterian Church in Christiana, DE.
Ian fully embraced his Scottish heritage and was instrumental in the formation of the Gordon Heights, City of Wilmington and Ogilvie Highlanders Pipe Bands. He was also associated with the Del Mar & District Pipe Band. Ian loved swinging his drum sticks either on the tenor drum or bass drum. His infectious laugher could be heard through many Scottish games over the years. He was blessed to have so many friends and colleagues in the Scottish community. Ian was also the former director of the Colonial Highland Gathering held in Fair Hill, Maryland, every year. His leadership will be missed.
Ian was a truly devoted husband, father, grandfather and friend. He is survived by his loving wife of 14 years, Noreen; daughter Elaine Pinder and husband Michael and their son Kyle; son Russell Johnstone and his wife, Karen and their children, Tina (Rich), Jennifer (Adam) and Bruce; son Donald Osicky and wife, Lisa and their children, Joseph and Arabelle; daughter, Elizabeth Vickery and husband, Ian and their children, Liam and Aaron; great-great grandchildren, Nate and Cameron; cousin, Tom Lawrie of Motherwell, Scotland, and his extended family in Scotland. He was preceded in death by his father William Johnstone and mother Eugene Michelle (Ghilardi).
