JOANN S. JOHNSON October 16, 1926-April 12, 2014 Joann S. Johnson, 87, of Delavan, WI, died Saturday, April 12 at Lakeland Aurora Hospital. She was born October 16, 1926 to Webb and Carol (Pascoe) Schultz. She graduated from Delavan High School in 1944 and attended the University of Wisconsin-Madison, where she met Donald Johnson. They married on January 31, 1948 in Delavan. She developed a great love of sports from her father and was a big fan of the Packers, Brewers, Bucks and Badgers. She used to keep a line score of every game. The last one she scored was Thursday, April 10, when the Brewers won. She also loved to read, do word puzzles, anything to keep her mind sharp. She loved her home in Delavan, especially the beautiful view of Lake Comus from her front window. She will be deeply missed by her daughters Carol (Michael) Grimaldi of Kansas City, MO, Diane (Wilbur) Honkan of Darien, Wendy (Robert) Shafer of Delavan, Jane Johnson of Delavan and Susan Ward of Madison.

And her cat, Max. Her husband Donald, her son Rick and her grandson Sean Ward preceded her in death. In lieu of flowers, please give to your favorite charity or cause. Pay it forward. She told us to always remember her, but not to mourn her. There will be a private burial. Betzer Funeral Home is assisting the family.
