My deepest sympathy to the family and friends of Johnny. It's been a long time, but Johnny and I were classmates at Barton. I started first grade there, moved away, and came back for the 6th thru 8th grades. In fact, I still have my 8th grade class photo. I remember Johnny as a soft-spoken gentleman. I had heard he was ill and had hoped to visit with him on my next trip to Helena-West Helena.
