The best of the best; there will never be another like him. So kind to everyone and he never forgot his roots. He contributed so much to so many and never thought twice about it. A real Hero to so many. Thanks for all your many deeds that went unnoticed by so many.

Best wishes from Canada. Although Junior had an amazing NASCAR career, I always enjoyed reading or hearing him talk about the moonshine days.

I was a kid when my uncle took to Bowman-Gray stadium in Winston-Salem, NC to watch a race. I was hooked on NASCAR at that time. Junior Johnson became my hero and favorite driver. He still is and will always be. NASCAR lost the best of the best. May God Bless Junior and his family and friends.
