Veterano de EE.UU.
Corey Keith Johnson, 27, of Kenosha, passed away on Sunday, May 3rd 2015.
Born in Kenosha on February 7th, 1988, he was the son of Keith R. Johnson and Judith (Borchardt) Johnson. He attended Jeffrey Elementary School, Lance Jr. High School, and graduated from Tremper High School in 2006. While at Tremper, Corey was a contributing member on the Men’s Varsity Soccer Team. Corey was currently studying at Tarrant County College in Fort Worth, TX.
Corey made the most selfless decision to join our Country’s Military following High School. He served a 15 month tour in Iraq, achieving numerous accolades; including the rank of Corporal, by the end of his service. Corey was honorably discharged in 2010; he was a proud member of A Co, 2nd Plt (Bad Boys) 1-27IN, 2nd BCT, 25th Infantry Division.
Corey will be remembered by his witty humor, uncanny ability to charm everyone in his presence (some might say by “schmoozing,”) his infectious smile, and for always putting others before himself; ultimately leading to his decision to serve our country. He loved his family and friends unconditionally, and he would do anything to bring a smile to someone’s face.
Corey is survived by his parents, Keith and Judy; his brothers, Matt and Erik Johnson; his sisters, Kelsey (James) Swan and Dana Johnson; his beloved niece, Kayleigh; his uncles, Roger and Ben Johnson, Father Edgar Borchardt, Russell (Mary) Borchardt; and his constant canine companion, Josie. He is further survived by a countless number of family and friends who all loved him dearly. Corey was a hero to us all.
Corey is preceded in death by his grandparents and Uncle Robert Borchardt.

Charmaine RobinsonKeith and Family, My deepest sympathy to you at this most difficult time. I have known others who have lost their adult children suddenly. There are no words of comfort or I would be saying them to you now. Just please know my heart aches for you and I will keep you in my prayers. Also, hold on to the love you all shared in happier times. Reading the obituary helped me to learn a little about what a great young man Corey was. It goes without saying how proud you were of him. May God Hold him in his Arms and may He Shine in Heaven with all the other Angels who have gone before him.. Sincerely, Charmaine Robinson

Randy KeenTo the family of Corey, we offer our deepest condolences to you and your loved ones . Corey is and will always be remembered from the days of soccer to the days of entering the Army and becoming a hero to all, he will always be our hearts. I found this prayer I wanted to share from a book for the armed services - Almighty God, we remember this day before thee thy faithful servant (N.), and we pray thee that, having opened to him the gates of larger life, thou wilt receive him more and more into thy joyful service; that he may win, with thee and thy servants everywhere, the eternal victory; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
