Scott J. Johnson

Scott Joseph Johnson, age 68 years, of Neenah, passed away at ThedaCare Regional Medical Center – Neenah, Saturday, March 1, 2025 due to medical complications following brain surgery for a malignant brain tumor. He was blessed with some amazing last hours of life with his family.
Scott was born on July 4, 1956 in Neenah, WI son of the late Mildred (Gray) Johnson and the late Dan E. Johnson. He was a graduate of St. Mary's High School, Menasha, WI and St. John's University, Collegeville, MN. After realizing accounting was not his calling, he became a full-time house painter. He was your go-to guy for painting questions and other handiwork.
On June 7, 1986 Scott married Charlene Bolliger and made Neenah, WI their home, raising 4 children. He began his career with Multi-Color Corporation (formerly WS Packaging) in 1995, most recently serving as a quality technician, and achieved 30 years of employment.
Scott loved spending time with family and friends, and his infectious laugh was always a part of those moments. He treasured being a grandfather and enjoyed golfing, brewing coffee, putting on his "street legal" firework shows, mystery books, movies, studying the Bible, and serving at church. He loved Jesus and his walk with God was his main stay.
