Brandon R. Johnsen

August 15, 2015

Brandon R. Johnsen, 25, of Bratt, was born August 8, 1989, and moved on to his next big adventure August 5, 2015. Sergeant Johnsen was a Night Stalker with the United States Army 160th Special Operations Aviation Regiment (Airborne) out of Ft. Campbell, Kentucky. He had recently returned from his fifth deployment. Brandon possessed a great love of music and the outdoors, and he never met a bowl of ice cream he could turn down.

Brandon is survived by his parents, Rolf and Lisa Johnsen; sister, Kari Zisa; brother-in-law, Michael Zisa; cousins, Travis and Quint Pittman, aunt, Rhonda Rader, his cousins Kristen and Adam MacDonald, and his beloved dog Freya.

He is preceded in death by his maternal grandparents, James and Bobby Ann Pittman and paternal grandparents, Edith Shelton and John E. Johnsen.

Brandon squeezed more life into his short 25 years than most manage in 100, and he will be sorely missed by all who had the good fortune to know him.

A celebration of his life was held at Faith Chapel North in Cantonment on August12, 2015.

Faith Chapel Funeral Home North is in charge of arrangements.
