Lawrence "Larry" Johnson, age 88, passed away on Tuesday January 9th, 2024, at Wisconsin Veterans Home at King.  Larry was born on October 9, 1935 in Miyon, Nevada to the late Lawrence and Edna (Nelson) Waukechon Johnson.  He grew up in Neopit, WI. On February 9th, 1963, Larry was united in marriage to Frances "Fran" Yarber.  She preceded him in death in 2018.

Larry served his country proudly in the United States Air Force during the Korean Conflict.  He then attended University of Iowa with a major in business marketing and met his wife Fran.  Was a dedicated Iowa Hawkeye fan. After graduation, they moved to Shawano and he began his career at the Menominee Trial Enterprise (MTE).  He worked his way up from shipping clerk to the trucking department manager to accounting manager and then ultimately president.

Larry was proud of his Native American heritage and loved spending time on the water at Moshawquit Lake.  That is where he taught his kids how to waterski.  His love of the water moved him to retire on Shawano Lake.
