Goodbye too soon to Big Johnny T, a man with a big hug and an even bigger heart. You leave a legacy behind in your daughter and grandchildren who adored you and though I did not know you nearly as well as I would have liked to, I've been hearing tales all my life about you. The originator of the phrase, "you need more stick time you donkey! Rest in Peace Johnny . I'm sure everyone was happy to see you come home. Love always your cousin Paula
