I only knew Uncle Johnny for a short time and he was so loved and cared for by his family.

I will miss him and his wonderful stories.

Jenna, Janelle, Jared, Paddy, and Charlie. ..

Our thoughts and prayers are with you on the passing of Uncle Johnnie.

I will always remember Uncle Johnnie's kindred spirit and his kindness to others. .. Uncle Johnnie had a lot of life experience wisdom that he shared. Uncle Johnnie liked to tell stories of 'how it was' coming up in the Santa Clara valley. I always enjoyed hearing those stories.

Our heartfelt condolences to you and family.

John, Claire, Kristin, and Amanda Gomez
