Karl Johnson

Karl E. Johnson, age 80, of Brookfield. Beloved husband of 57 years to Sharon E. Johnson, nee Slazes; “Uncle Karl” to many, especially Anna and Eric, Deanna, Matthew, Kristian, Ben and Ethan; dear brother of David Johnson, Ingrid Watson and the late Ruth Young.

Karl was a very joyous person, loved by many, bringing a smile to those around him. He had a passion for collecting and repairing vintage 1930’s Radios. Karl loved fishing, bowling and savored pistachio nuts; and is missed dearly by his furry friend, Sassy. The World is a sadder place without him.

A Celebration of Life will be Scheduled In May (check back by May 1, 2025.).
