Mr. Platt died Tuesday, Jan. 11, 2022, in Kansas City, Kan.

Johnny Lee Platt Jr. was born Jan. 22, 1984, to John and Christine (Voss) Platt of Walcott.

Johnny had a dedicated and decorated career in public safety. Johnny’s end of watch was Jan. 11, 2022, as the deputy director with Johnson County Emergency Management & Communications in Kansas City, Kan.

Johnny will be remembered by many people for many reasons. His love of his loyal companion, Cash. His big bear hugs. His fair and firm, take-no-BS approach to his job. His camaraderie with his colleagues. His hate of clowns. His quick acceptance of a dollar dare. Most of all, his dedication to his people and his incredible ability to keep them laughing (and laughing and LAUGHING)!

Left to celebrate his legacy of love and laughter are his parents, John and Christine Platt of Muscatine; sister Jenna (Brandyn) Cobb and niece Aubree of Norway, Iowa; his four legged companion, Cash; numerous family members and incredible friends.
