I enjoyed having him as a neighbor at the Boston Trailer Park. He was quiet and respectful. He helped me with yardwork. he planted some lovely hostas along the side of his trailer that faced mine, and maintained them beautifully. I loved the Japanese maples that he planted in front of his trailer. I already miss him

Dear Georgia and family,

I wish to offer my sincere condolences. May God keep Johnny's memory in your hearts for eternity.
With the utmost respect in mind, Johnny stopped by one day, out of nowhere, for 6 minutes. He sat by the pool, eating something delicious, from Francos. He spoke of traffic, in between bites and quickly left, saying, "I gotta go. I'm on break". It was really funny considering all I (worlds longest talker) could say was, "hi & bye".
This was likely 25+ years ago but, one of the memories I have of Johnny that put a smile on my face.
Peace and love to you,
Mary
