Johnny was such an awesome person. Always had a smile on his face and would do anything he could to help anyone in need. He will be missed so much by so many! I still cant wrap my head around the fact that he is no longer here. I will never forget the many times he put a smile on my face when I was having a bad day. He always put others before himself. The entire family will remain in my thoughts and prayers. Ride with the angels Johnny. Rest In Peace my friend, until we see each other again!!
