On the wings of the Angels
On the road to Heavenly Peace
Like Jesus born in a manger
You're born again in eternal bliss

So hard to say good-bye,
So we're saying "so long"
And speed those words
On the wings of the song

Rest in Peace Dear Johnny,
You left your smiling imprint here
In thousands hearts you made sunny
Your kids will know you are near.

I extend my deepest sympathies to your family. May his soul be at peace with our Heavenly Father. I worked at town and country market and I used to see Johnny sometimes, he was very nice, humble and simple guy. We talked about soccer every time I saw him. I was very proud to have you as a friend. Rest in peace Johnny.

Dear Rabba Family,
I am so sorry to hear of John's passing. My heart is filled with sadness for you all. I remember him as such a happy student at MCA. Although he faced struggles, he always seemed to smile and carry on as best as he could. I am thankful that I knew him as a student.
