I honestly don't even to know where to begin. I have so many fond memories. By far the kindest human ever no matter what was going on in the moment. You were my best friend from the start and taught me so many life lessons. Thank you for stepping up and being a role model.. I know how much you hated the saying goodbye. So its not a goodbye, it's I will see you later.
I love you so much uncle Johnny. And I know you're having the best time ever up there.
RIP you Hippy Caveman.

I don´t really have a clear memory but I always remembered him coming to my grandparents during the summer and would go fishing and just hang out. We always had a great time

I was glad my husband David Johnloz introduce me to his uncle Johnny everytime we come to Elkhart my husband use to try to go visit with him and his lovely wife, I always felt welcome. The last time I seen uncle Johnny he had came to our house to get his truck fix by my husband, he would always sit in our kitchen until my husband finished with his truck.
We would just start up conversations about anything but this last time we shared all kinds of gospel songs on our phones and sing to them. I will always remember that. you uncle Johnny.
