Dear Johnny,Your 2nd Cousin Gabe from New Jersey;I just found out of your passing one month ago. My heart is broken for you and your wife´s loss. We had some childhood memories but that one week in February of 1968 is what stays in my heart the most. The way you let me come along during your daily routine and evening fun times I will always keep close to me.Driving in your mustang ,discotheques in the city,the wonderful music memories and being with both our parents altogether was awe inspiring! The hole experience was like a jumpstart for my life moving forward. It´s sad that we never saw each other again but I still feel your soul. You showed me so much and taught me even more. I look forward to the day when we will be together again. Life is unfair when our family disappoints us sometime. I know that you embraced family and God. I will never forget you Johnny- peace be with you. Gabe

I knew JB for 55 years of my life. He was the best friend I ever had , we were like brothers. I miss him so much and loved him so much. I am devastated by this and pray that we will meet again in Heaven! You couldn't have had a better friend than J.B. I can't stop crying over this, they don't come ant better

By sheer coincidence I was reviewing my High School Yearbook (I have no idea why) and ran across John's picture so I googled him and was shocked to find out of his passing. John and I were close, (he helped me learn to drive), and all through school we played lots of ball and did other things together with a tight group friends.
I always expected to visit him at some time but never got down his way. He was a great guy and although we had no contact I often thought about him. I knew his Father and Mother and they were just great people.
For those he left behind, take some comfort in knowing that he was well liked by everybody. Fare well John you are in my thoughts.

Rest in peace. You fought a long hard battle. It's time to rest. I'll miss you. R

Johnny, we talked of this day so many times. Through it all, you stayed with God, loved your friends and your wife Donna. Hold your head high brother. We love you. Wes
