Obituary

Muriel H. Johnson, age 88, passed away in the early morning hours of August 20, 2023. Muriel was born the youngest of three children, on October 16, 1934 in Chicago, IL to Myrtle (Winter) and Harry Burke. It is in Chicago that she met the love of her life and married Bob Johnson Sr. on August 30, 1952. Bob preceded her in death in 2012. They had three children and in 1972 moved to Wisconsin.



Muriel enjoyed spending time at her grandchildren's and great-grandchildren's many activities: soccer, baseball, hockey games and school concerts; taking sunny vacations with family and friends to places in the Caribbean; hours long gatherings with friends and family in her barn (half of which was created just for that purpose!), long visits by friends and family 'just to talk.' Muriel loved tending to her flowers and taking care of her birds, looking out her country window and seeing deer, turkey, and cranes feasting in her nearby field.



In the mid-90s, Muriel retired from her work as a domestic helper for a few elderly Oshkosh residents, which allowed them to stay in their homes longer.



Muriel is survived by her children, Bob (Denise) Johnson Jr., Linda (John) Pintar, Barbara (Brian) Schulze; grandchildren, Amy (Chris) Peterson, Bob Johnson, John (Jenny) Pintar, Michael (Jolene) Pintar, Brian (Jessica) Schulze and David (Katie) Schulze; along with 14 great-grandchildren.



Our mother is now safely and happily in arms of her Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. We would like to thank everyone at The Courtyard of Oshkosh Assisted Living Facility, especially Cathy and Melissa for the kind and loving care they provided her throughout her stay; Promedica (Heartland) Hospice, Jody, Lynn and John, for their focused, loving care throughout the last 5-months of Mom's life and the very special friends she made at The Courtyard – you meant more to her than you know, and the Pastors and lay people from Grace Lutheran Church who regularly came to visit her, talk faith and share the sacraments.



It was Muriel's wish for a private service of only immediate family members after her passing.



A memorial is being established.
