Blackie could be hard to handle for some. But his talent and humor were second to none. He was always good to me and I am so thankful I got to experience this world with him in it. I miss you

Went to grammar school with Johnny at St. John Fisher and remember you playing with The Tumbling Dice friends! . Your talents were limitless. Gone way too soon! Deepest sympathy to your family. You will be missed but never forgotten. xoxo
