I only recently learned of Johan´s passing. We were friends back in middle school in Moscow. I have very fond memories of our time together and remembered him as a very cheerful and optimistic person, always fun to be around. I earnestly wish we had stayed in touch after he moved away. My sincere condolences to his family and may he rest in peace.

Johan was a good friend to me in high school. He was always calm and considerate to others. He taught me many things like how to start working out and how to go with the flow when things get tough in life. I learned about his passing a while ago but I think I'm trying to process it to this day. Johan always will be remembered as a kind and genuine person and a great friend. Thank you for being in my life, Johan.

I am a former teacher of Johannes back at the International School of Kigali, Rwanda.
I am so heartbroken to have learned about his passing just today. Johannes was a wonderful young man and a student in my class. He made everybody feels loved and appreciated around him and was a wonderful company to his peers back in Kigali.
My former students and I will miss him forever.
All our sincere condolences and love to his family.

Nancy, we are very sorry to hear about Johannes. He was a good friend to our kids in Kiev and Moscow, a real part of our family. Even though it has been a while since we have seen him, we will miss him greatly.
