John F. Lemisch

i think of you still, almost every day....

Here it is 2024 and I am almost 79. I still miss you. A Lot.

I took this photo of Johnny playing piano at my house in Upper Darby, PA, when he was about 15.

"John" will always be "Johnny," to me. We were friends back in the 1950´s. We played the old card game Go Fish; we smoked our first cigarette together; we took our first drink together; we played football together at Upper Darby Jr High School; we hung out every day; we went on double dates. He was my leader. We lost touch, but I found him again around 2014. He´d changed, but he was still Johnny Lemisch. I miss him and think of him a lot.

It's been over three years now, and not a day goes by when I want to talk to you, or ask you a question. I will always miss you. We were best friends through Jr High and football there; I know you would remember that.
