Mavis Johnson, age 83, of Maryville was called home to be with the Lord on Saturday, February 28, 2026. Mavis and Ole were life long dairy farmers in Barronett, WI. Her son, daughter-in-law, and grandkids were thrilled to have Grandpa and Grandma J. move to East TN over four years ago so that they could go to all the concerts, sporting events, and musicals. Then there was Grandma's cooking and baking - oh my! Family argued over which was best: her cinnamon rolls, cheesecake, pumpkin bars, or her seven-layer salad. Her family was the center of her world. She was so pleased to see her three great-grandsons born in beautiful East TN.

She is survived by her husband of 62 years, Harold "Ole" Johnson; son, Jeffrey (Susan) Johnson; grandchildren Eric, April, Luke (Blair), Nicholas, and Rebecca Johnson; great-grandchildren Henry, August, and Finn Johnson; brother-in-law, Harley Johnson. In lieu of flowers, donations to Praise Lutheran Church would be greatly appreciated.

The family will be receiving friends and family on Thursday, March 5, 2026 from 10:00am - 11:00am at Praise Lutheran Church (315 Southdowne Dr, Maryville, TN 37801) with a funeral service at 11:00am with Pastor Derek Roberts officiating. Following the funeral will be a graveside service at Holston College Cemetery at 2:00pm. Arrangements made by Miller Funeral Home (915 W. Broadway, Maryville, TN 37801).
