Wilma Mae Johnson, 89, of Austin, Minn., died Sunday, Dec. 9, 2012, at the Stacyville Community Nursing Home in Stacyville, Iowa.

Wilma was born to William and Ethel Kraft on May 1, 1923, at home on the family farm near Dexter, Minn. She was the third child and oldest daughter in a family of seven children. She attended school in Dexter, Minn. On October 10, 1942, she was married to Alton Johnson at St. Olaf Church in Austin. They resided in Austin where Al was employed at Hormel’s and Wilma was a homemaker. She enjoyed bowling and watching her favorite TV shows: “As the World Turns,” “Bonanza” and “Gunsmoke.” She loved to hang out a “nice wash on the clothesline,” to visit with the “neighbor ladies” and to find a great sale.

In March 2003, she moved to the assisted living wing of the Stacyville Community Nursing Home. While there, she became a top notch Bingo player and a champion table-top bowler. In fact, she became the first person to roll a perfect score of 300 in Stacyville.

She is survived by her son Bob (Lucy) Johnson; daughter Sherri (Greg) Grimley; three grandchildren, Sarah (Scott Foley), Aaron (Ronna) Johnson and Rebecca Grimley; five great-grandchildren, Sawyer and Samuel Foley, Austin and Riley Lucy Johnson and Micah Peterson; her special “Stacyville Family” (staff and residents); one brother, Wilbur; two sisters, Elinor and Carol. She is preceded in death by her husband; son, Jim; parents; brothers Leslie and Lawrence; and sister, Florence.

Funeral services for Wilma will be 11 a.m. Friday, Dec. 14, 2012, at Mayer Funeral Home in Austin. Interment will follow at Oakwood Cemetery. There will be visitation at the funeral home one hour prior to services. Mayer Funeral Home is in charge of arrangements.
