Didn't know Johnnie, but knew of him through Freddi. She is my friend and I know her brothers mean the world to her. She will have stars in her crown in Heaven for leading Johnnie to the Lord before he passed. Blessings to all the family. Know Johnnie is in a better place than we are.

you came into my life when I was young,
You loved me and my brother like we were yours. you tought me many things that i have carried on thru my life. You were there for a lot of first's in my life, my first date, birth of my child, sneaking out to the lafette grill (when i was to young). Even after you and mom divorced you stayed in my life. All i ever had to do was pick up the phone and you were there. I know you are in a better place then where you have been. Give uncle mike a hug for me.

Johnny, What a wonderful kind heart you always had, and a great laugh.. We shared good times together , and you will be missed by many...
Sitting there in Heaven,
All leaned back in a chair made of soft cloud,
Mike right beside you,
talkin about fishin"
Both being full of love and feeling proud,
Of how the loved ones,
Will draw strength that you send ,,
To move forward and carry on,
With fond memories as their hearts mend.
You have each other now,
Never to be apart and ever alone....
Enjoy your well deserved rest Johnny.
Your friends,
