Johnny, you came into my life in my most formative teenage years. We had so many fun times together, and while we grew apart for a while, we came back together, just as strong. Thank you for bringing Becky into my life and for all the fantastic Saturday lunches and backyard get together`s. You left a mark that can never be repeated. I love you and wish you peace and rest.
