Let the family know you care by sharing this tribute
Krystal Ann Johnson (born Krystal Ann Moore), 38, of Overland Park, KS entered heaven on Monday, October 26th, 2020. All who knew Krystal can attest that she had a heart for God and others. She always had a smile on her face and had an amazing ability of making everyone feel important and special. Krystal was beautiful, strong, humble, full of grace and always had an eye for style.
Krystal was born on August 12th, 1982 in Madison, WI and lived in Cottage Grove, WI at the time of birth. Many of her early years were spent in southeast KS with her mom and dad. Life eventually brought her to Lee’s Summit, MO where she attended Underwood Elementary School, Bernard Campbell Middle School and Lee’s Summit North High School. Krystal graduated from Lee’s Summit North High School in May of 2000 and went on to obtain a Bachelor’s degree in Fashion Merchandising and Design from Missouri State University in 2004. Shortly after graduating from college, Krystal married her high school sweetheart, Dusty Johnson, on May 16th, 2005. The two of them introduced five sons (Tristin – 13, Brek – 12, Tate – 9, Britton – 7, Truitt – 3) and one daughter (Brylee – 1) into this world from 2007 to 2019. Krystal fulfilled some of her biggest dreams by getting married, having a family of her own and doing it all perfectly. In July of 2019 Krystal was diagnosed with stage IV lung cancer. She fought a ferocious battle for 15 months before she was called to heaven. Krystal will forever be remembered for being a light in this world. She was an amazing mom, wife, daughter and friend.
