Deepest sympathy to your family. My fondest memories of JohnnyMike are all the years we would all pile in the car and spend the day at Conneaut Lake Park , what great times those were. Also seeing him at school. He knew how to have fun no matter what he was doing. I´m sure he will be missed.
Debbie Pyle.

JohnnyMike brightened my life with fun memories of people and events when we were young kids in Prospect! He was younger than me but could tell me who was related to who or memories from the Butler races. May he have peace and rest in Jesus arms!
