My uncle was one of the most caring & thoughtful people I have ever known. He had one of the happiest & funniest personalities EVER. That's probably why I absolutely LOVED being around him. I will miss his "story telling" and his big ole' hugs! May Jonathan, Eric, Lil' Ronnie, Ronnie & John find peace in knowing he is in Heaven. My prayers & love to you all!

I am very saddened to hear that Johnny has passed away. We grew up together outside of Brickeys and I have only fond memories of the times I spent with him and his family. Johnny will always be remembered as a great guy and I only wish I could have seen him and stayed in touch through the years. My prayers and sincere condolence goes out to all of his family.
God Bless...

Dear Johnny's Family, I grew up in Brickeys and with Johnny. I am so sad to hear about his death. If you do not have his basketball photos from Brickeys Elementary School, I will be glad to email them to you. Johnny is in the 1957-58 and 1958-59 photos. So many times, I had hoped to visit with him again and never did. This truly saddens me. God's Best to all of You, NoraAnn
