Rock on, Johnny! I'll never forget you, man. Thanks for the memories. Till we meet again, my brother.

I met Johnny from time to time over the years and he was always upbeat. He always had joke or funny story to tell and never let problems drag his mood down. I'll always remember this about him; it's a good way to get through any day. We friends and fellow musicians will dearly miss him.

Johnny was my cousin. I remember him playing the drums and having his 1968 Camaro. He will be greatly missed. He will be watched over by his dad, my uncle Walt. May they both rest in peace.

Although I could not attend due to living out of State, my thoughts and prayers were with Johnny, his son, and family. Johnny and I played in the Roadshow band in the 80s. He was one of the kindest people I've ever met, a great sense of humor, and a great drummer. Those who knew Johnny, loved him. I will miss him dearly.

Johnny was a great guy and I know his sprite will live-on forever...

Johnny was a good friend of mine for years. We shared some good times. I will never forget the memories. Rest in peace, Love
