To Johnny's family, Johnny was my good friend, I will miss him.  In 2017 my son Clint passed away.  The class of 68 always notifies everyone of deaths in our class or the family of someone in our class.  Two years after Clint's death I was looking through cards I had received at Clint's death.  I came across the one Johnny wrote to me.  There are no good words that can be said when you lose a child, but Johnny's words touched me and I remembered I had not even thanked him for the card.  So I messaged him on FB and told him thank you for the very nice card and apologized for waiting so long to say thank you.  He messaged me back and for the last 3 years we have messaged news and greetings back and forth.  Johnny loved Christmas wishes.  So,  dear sweet family of Johnny, just know he was a wonderful person, which I am sure you already know.  My sincere condolences for your loss.  A very kind man is now another angel around the throne of our Lord.
