Audrey J. Johnson

Audrey Jane Johnson, nee Bruessel, was called to her eternal home, Thursday, September 23, 2021, at the age of 91.

Audrey was born on February 17, 1930 and married Russell C. Johnson on September 14, 1946. Russell preceded Audrey in death on November 14, 2017. They had seven children, Russell L. Johnson of Slinger, Gerald (Ruth) Johnson of Florida, Jane (William) Passaglia of Illinois, James (Karen) Johnson of Hartford, Joan (Robert) Kearns of Kewaskum, Judith Bonlender of Slinger, and Andrew Johnson of Lomira. They had 16 grandchildren and 23 great-grandchildren.

She enjoyed quilting, scrabble, and gardening, and has left many beautiful creations for her family to enjoy. Audrey always had a saying “Put yourself in your pocket” and she certainly did that in always serving others, as her Savior served her.
