As a second cousin I knew "Johnny" when I was a little girl. I remember how hard he worked while going to school and admiring him and his ambition. After marrying and moving away I lost touch with most of my distant family members but "Johnny" always stood out in my mind. Being a widow myself, Jean, I know how difficult it is to lose a wonderful spouse. God be with you in these trying times.
