No bells and whistles and not a pretentious bone in his body. Lots of good solid values and was certainly a proud American!! Johnny loved teasing me and gave me hard time every single time we spoke and would laugh when I gave it right back to him. Bye Johnny and don't worry, I'll do my best to take care of Linda but I know it won't be as good as what you did...you were a good brother.

Hi Johnny,
I will miss your crazy views and fun perspective on so many issues especially politics and Ebay. You always made me laugh. Rest well my friend. Love, Sandra Griffin
