In lieu of flowers, donations can be sent to Patriot K9s of Wisconsin (www.patriotk9s.com). Patriot K9s is an organization that pairs and trains shelter rescue dogs and veterans with PTSD. The dogs are trained to be service dogs to the veterans. Johan was a supporter of veterans and the comfort that a canine can give to people.
