2nd Battalion Princess Patricia’s Canadian Light Infantry (2 PPCL |) mourns the loss of Cpl Jacob W. Johnson, who passed away on 12 July 2024. The Regimental Family extends our condolences to the family, friends and colleagues of Cpl Johnson who joined the Regiment in 2019 and had served 5 years with the 2nd Battalion.
Cpl Johnson was a steadfast and quiet professional, who contributed to training Ukrainians as they prepared for on-going combat operations, work critically important to supporting the rules-based international order.
Having served with 2 PPCLI at home, and abroad on Op UNIFIER, he will be dearly missed by all.

Cpl Johnson – the son of Julie Peters of Seabird Island and Don Johnson of Burnaby BC, younger brother to James Johnson – was a graduate of the Bold Eagle program. Cpl Johnson’s Celebration of Life took place in the Great Hall at 2 PPCLI on 19 July 2024 at 1200, surrounded by his Regimental and Immediate family.

At a later date, a Celebration of Life will take place in Seabird Island. The Peters-Johnson family kindly asks for privacy during this time, and sincerely thanks you for the wishes of condolences and prayers.
