Worker for Geneva Steel, Frank Johnson was a hard working welder and carpenter capable of building almost anything from his own blueprints. He constructed various wood and steel structures including homes, carts, sheds, cabinetry, garages, and the gazebo in the center of Mapleton Park. He is also responsible for the showers in Jolly's Ranch, and the best swingset ever that he built for his children. The glider could swing almost 10 feet off the ground! He did excellent finishing work on houses, setting up the pipes and wiring himself most of the time. A stickler for quality in everything he constructed, most of it is still in excellent condition decades later. As an avid outdoorsman, his hobbies included hiking, collecting rocks, hunting, and fishing. His unusual rock/boulder collection was used to construct colorful rock walls and gardens, and a fountain featured in his backyard. Spending time in his large orchard, riding motorcycles and ATVs (rather recklessly), and playing the harmonica were other activities he enjoyed immensely. He volunteered many hours of his time to help build Mapleton city throughout his life.
