Note 1: Burial info From Find A Grave Eulogy: We are here today to farewell a fine old Queenslander - Mrs. Leila Johnson, who was nearly 96 years old. Formerly Leila Bonning, she was born in Ingham in 1892 and, when about 17 years of age, began a nursing career at the local hospital. She was a dignified and quiet beautiful young woman, so, before long, she was married to a young cane farmer called Frank Johnson. They set up home on land outside Ingham - rather a primitive place (or was in those days) - dirt floors, no refrigeration, and only intermittent supplies from the township. In spite of this, or perhaps, because of it, she became an excellent cook and house-wife, managing always to keep a high standard of conduct and of the social niceties. As time went on, the couple moved to other areas outside Ingham, to carve out other farms. It was hard work in the heat, but the Johnsons struggled on, and finally took up virgin land on the Townsville Road, where they built a lovely Queenslander type home, with wide verandas, an orchard and gardens, set in the midst of what became a beautiful cane farm. By this time, too, they had also purchased a picture theatre and other real estate in Ingham itself, so in their middle years, they had something to show for all their effort. In her husband's last years, Mrs. Johnson gave up all outside interests and devoted herself entirely to his care. She was a good and faithful wife and was always, almost fiercely supportive of her children - home and family meant everything to her. On her husband's death at age 72, she bought a house in Coorparoo, and here she lived alone until three years ago. She had the sorrow of losing her youngest son, Ron, eight years ago, and, though deeply grieved, in her usual proud and quiet manner she made little outward show. Her other two sons and her two daughters are present today, and, with their families, are sad indeed at the passing of this reserved but valiant and strong-minded pioneer of Ingham sugar farming - their dear Mother.
