Johnny and I were very good friends in our early years. We played games, built model airplanes,hunted and fished together. As a granish hill boy I enjoyed many afternoons listening to him playing the according. Of course I got to drive his dad's Buick and Johnny's supped up Chevy. Working with him at the store was fun. I have said many prayers for him. I will miss him.
