Not sure what to say?

We just found out about this tragic loss tonight. Our deepest sympathies to Betty and the family. Great memories of my old picking buddy.

I was so saddened by the passing of Johnny (I always called him Banjo) he will surely be missed. I worked with and around him and heard him play occasionally he had a great musical talent. My prayers go out to his family.

We always looked forward to hearing Johnny play the banjo. He was a fantastic guy and banjo picker.
Bluegrass fans, Jake & Jean Mooney, Mobile

You were always first to arrive
And always last to leave
Your banjo always in tune
Now we must somehow grieve

You always had a joke
And an award winning smile
It saddens me to think
That you're gone for a while

But think of who awaits on the other side
Our Lord, Bill Monroe, and Howard Maples too
They've been waiting awhile
Waiting for you

Though we'll meet again
One day, hopefully soon
You will be waiting...

Betty, I'm so sorry for your loss. You and your family are in our thoughts and prayers.

Our prayers are with you and yours...Becky & Troy Knowles

Our prayers are with you Betty and your family.

Billy & Anniece Yates
