JOHNNY EDWARD SMITH

To the family and friends of Johnny E. Smith, Jr.,

It was so heartbreaking to hear of Johnny's passing. Met Johnny at SBA and he was a dear and friend to me. We worked closely together in the latter years, but first met him in 2013. A bond ensued in 2014, 2015, and 2016 when we were in the same groups. Had not worked with Johnny since 2018, but we kept in touch.

People are placed in your life for a reason. Johnny's was his joy of life. He enjoyed his life to the fullest and that exuded from him. He shared his adventures with me. He loved his Mom so much, and you knew it. His love for his family and friends is depicted in the video. May you all be comforted on your loss and may your memories sustain you.

Am so glad that we were able to touch each other's life. His positive energy will have a lasting effect on all that had the pleasure of being close to him. May you rest in peace, Johnny. Know you're still enjoying yourself and sharing that with others.

Friend of Johnny,

May the peace, spirit, and love of God cover you through this time of sorrow. As the days and weeks pass, and as you return to life's routine, may you continue to feel comforted by the love and support of family and friends.

Johnny was always so courteous and kind to me. Always cheerful. I was so saddened to hear of his passing. Condolences to the family. Rest well sir.
