I have known Mr. Johnnie for 30 years and feel very lucky for having been able to spend time with the family. He had a great sense of humor and a commitment to treat everyone as a friend. Every Christmas he would have a holiday party for all the employees and their families. He would give a gift to every child of his employees. This was a tradition he started over 70 years ago. I'm sure the angels in heaven are now driving Cadillacs.
