Obit Johnathon Colt DoerrOur sweet son, brother, uncle, friend and father Johnathon Colt Doerr was called back to his heavenly home on Jan. 31, 2017, giving him the opportunity to spend some time with his baby girl Breklee before she comes to meet her earthly family. Johnathon was born May 3, 1997, in Salt Lake City to Betsy Anderson Brown and Christopher Larry Doerr. From the second he was born, he was curious about this world and all the people in it. Johnny grew into a loving young man who found good in every single person he met. He was understanding, compassionate and most of all friendly. There wasn’t a person he met that he didn’t consider a friend. Johnny lived his life full speed ahead and always in the fast lane. To say he will be missed just simply would not do justice to the hole he has left in the hearts of all who knew him. Johnny leaves behind his mother Betsy Brown (Cody Brown), his father Christopher Doerr, girlfriend Mickenzie Key, and seven siblings: Dustin Brown, Tristen Brown, Chelsie Brown, Garrett Doerr, Hunter Doerr, Grace Brown and Tucker Brown. Johnny was preceded in death by his grandma Tracy Doerr and his grandpa Wade Doerr. The world became a little darker without him in it and his family will forever feel his loss.
