| About | Ann JOHNSON Obituary Age 49, of St. Paul. Ann was fatally injured in an accident on a mountain road in northern Washington State Sunday afternoon, July 21. Her love for mountain travel began in early childhood on many family vacation trips. Ann was executive director of Delta Dental of Minnesota Foundation and director of community affairs for Delta Dental. Before joining Delta Dental in 2000, she worked for 10 years in the special projects division of the Minnesota Attorney General's Office. Ann was a board member of Minnesota Alliance With Youth and previously had served on the boards of Parks and Trails Council of Minnesota and the Ordway Circle of Stars. She also was co-chair of Smiles Across Minnesota. Ann was a graduate of the University of Minnesota and earned a master's degree in leadership from Augsburg College. She had a passion for life that inspired and touched the lives of those around her. Her enthusiasm for lifelong learning and personal growth not only strengthened herself but also those whose lives she touched. Ann is survived by parents Russell and Janice Johnson, sisters Sue Schletty Mehus (Noel) and Karin Senstad (Allen), brother Gregg Johnson (Lynn), aunts, uncle, nieces, nephews, a grandniece, and beloved dog Olive. A Celebration of Life service will be announced at a later date. Memorials will be distributed among Ann's favorite non-profit organizations (on website) or donor's choice. www.forevermissed.com/ann-k-johnson Published by Pioneer Press on Jul. 28, 2013. |
