Dennis was born April 4, 1943, in Falun, WI to Myron E. and Beatrice E. (Warner) Johnson. He graduated from Grantsburg High School, Grantsburg, WI in 1961. After graduation, he completed qualifications as a medical technician. Dennis married Mary Sue Lind on April 18, 1964, at Siren Covenant Church in Siren, WI. From 1964 to 1966, Dennis worked at the Grantsburg Hospital as head medical technician. In 1966, he went to work for Abbott Labs in North Chicago in their research department. Dennis began working in the insurance industry in 1970, and he and his family moved to Pipestone, MN in 1973, where he was employed by First Bank (now US Bank). While working for US Bank, they lived in Minnetonka before moving to St. Cloud in 1983 where he retired in 2008. Dennis was a gentle and generous soul and dearly loved his family and many friends. He faithfully tended to the gardens, and loved being outdoors and taking day trips. He attended Riverside Church, was a skilled woodworker, and an avid MN Gophers, Twins and Vikings (when they were winning) fan.
