Our thoughts and prayers are with the entire Adrian family. We've known Johnny since our early Auburn college days. Johnny and our son Jim were childhood friends when both of our families lived next door in Professor Ware's apartments. Wonderful memories are in our hearts and the Jimmy Street family (Jimmy, Claudia, Jim and Della) and my parents Claude and Jean Perry send our love and prayers to the entire Adrian family.

My thoughts and prayers go out to Johnny's family. It was a long journey but now he is at peace and feeling no more pain. All of you gave him the strength, support and love he needed for this fight. Only God knew when it was Johnny’s time to come home and now heaven has gained another angel. May God shower you with his grace and bring you comfort during your loss.
