Dean Alan Johnson

Dean Alan Johnson was born September 7, 1958 in Fargo, North Dakota. The Johnson family moved to Monroe, Washington in 1967 where Dean attended school. While at Monroe High School he met and eventually married his high school sweetheart Julie and they began to build their life together.

Dean was passionate in all that he pursued. He never lost his love for speed. He went from a young boy building and racing dirt bikes with his dad and brothers to being a part of a high performance motorcycle race team. He loved cross country trips with his wife on his Harley or a leisurely weekend ride.

Dean worked as a foreman for Seacomm Erectors, Inc. in Sultan, WA for nearly 30 years erecting Communications Towers across the country. The position allowed him to mentor others over the years including his sons Jeremy and Jake. The profession enabled him to travel throughout the country and to see the world. His other trades include working as a Union Boilermaker and as a certified welder in Iron Workers Local Union #86.

Dean was passionate in everything he attempted but his greatest passion was his family. He enjoyed his time with his grandchildren and watching them grow. He would spend hours building a lego tower, teaching them to ride bikes or just rocking them to sleep in his chair.

He will be greatly missed by all.

Dean is survived by his wife of 36 years, Julie (Earlywine) Johnson of Gold Bar, WA, his children, Heather Johnson (Zack) of Nampa, Idaho, Jeremy Johnson of Snohomish, WA, and Jake Johnson of Nampa, Idaho. His four grandchildren he adored; Jordana, Kaydin, Zachary, and Delaney.

In addition he leaves his mother Marian Johnson of Monroe, WA, brothers, Steve Johnson (Jan) of Lake Stevens, WA, Rod Johnson of Monroe, WA, and Kendall Johnson (Susie) of Monroe, WA, and numerous nieces and nephews. Dean was preceded in death by his father, Harold Johnson in March 2014.

Services will be held on Saturday, November 14th at 1:00pm at Peace Lutheran Church, 202 Dickinson Rd., Monroe, WA 98272.
