Johan can be remembered for his love of Big Mac’s and mars bars, playing crib and telling jokes. He can also be remembered for his stubbornness of not wanting to use his cane or his walker and in the end his wheelchair. This usually led to arguments about who was right, and in the end I (Nancy) was always right, after all I was in charge of bringing in the big Macs, mars bars and even sneaking in the occasional Pepsi. 

Johan will be missed by the people that had gotten to know him over the past several years.
