Johnny was a student I had the pleasure of having in my classes at North Wilkes High School. Having been in the school business for thirty years, the years and the students kind of run together, and the faces and names do the same. However, Johnny was a name and a face that I will always remember. He was an outstanding student, but beyond that, he was an exceptional person. He was dedicated, hard working, polite, and courteous to everyone. To sum up what Johnny meant to me personally, he made me proud to be called a teacher. My thoughts and prayers are with his family.
