Johnny, Thank you for all the memories we made together. You were always thoughtful, kind, loving, understanding, and "there" for me. We had a very special friendship that I will treasure for the rest of my life. You never expected anything in return for anything you did for me except maybe a chocolate malt once in a while. You were a remarkable person and I'm so lucky to have had you in my Rest and take it easy now. I love you, Lanora

I worked with John back in the early 80's. He was such a nice man and great friend. He loved his family with all his heart and was eager to tell a story about them at any time. His face would like up when he talked about his family. He was a good man and I know he will truly be missed
