I only got to be your friend for eleven years...not long enough...You were my best friend. What a true and loyal friend you were..always. Johnny cared so much about others. Always helping in any way that he could. I will miss you. You called recently and we listened to the CW song..I will see you on the other side. I know you are out of pain now and am thankful I was able to be with you as hard as it was. Love you and one day I will see you on the other side.
