Not sure what to say?

Sorry for your loss may God be with you all. Gary and Karol Adams. Adams Auto Service

I learned so much about Johnny from his sister, Lillie Mae Clayburn, my mother-in-law. Always wanted to meet Johnny, and both Richard and I happen to be thinking about him lately. All our love from Richard and Jody Clayburn family.

I am so very sorry for your loss. Uncle Johnny was such a good man. I will never forget his kindness. He had such a wonderful personality to go along with his sweet smile and sense of humor. We love you all and will be lifting you in prayer during this sad time.

We are very sorry to hear of Johnny's passing. He was a sweetheart. Always a smile on his face and a twinkle in his eye. A very good, generous man.

Uncle Ken and Aunt Barbie, we are sorry for your loss. Sending Hugs.
Love, Ray and Nancie

Grief can be so hard, but our special memories help us cope. Remembering you and your loved one today and always.
