Johanna Dean

On Wednesday, May 21st, 2014 Johanna Dean was killed in a collision with a truck at the corner of Albro Lake Dr and Windmill Rd.Please take a moment to read her obituary.

We are organizing a memorial ride and the placement of a ghost bike on Wednesday, May 28th. We will meet at the Dartmouth Sportsplex parking lot at 5pm. We will allow time for people to arrive from Halifax and other areas before we proceed along Windmill Rd to the site of the crash.

Ms Dean’s family has requested that donations be made to the HCC to help advocate for cyclist safety in Halifax. We will be working with the family to find an appropriate project or campaign to honour Ms Dean’s life.

We are planning a memorial ride and vigil. We will be placing a “Ghost Bike” as part of this. Once the details are confirmed we will update this page and share the information on our social media channels.

If you would like to make a donation, please mail a cheque to
