Johnny's ever-present smile, terrific personallity and winning ways endeared everyone to him! He was beloved by his family and friends, he is someone we will never forget. Although our later years living in Florida distanced us from our nephew Johnny and his sweet wife, Barbara Jean & family, they and he were always in our hearts, we loved keeping in touch. Johnny, we know we will see you again in the Place you now dwell, my dear. What a wonderful Reunion you are now having with parents and all those in your family who preceded you! Love always and Forever, Uncle Bill Heflin & wife Cecelia.
