My most vivid memory of Johnny is when he was trick or treating with his siblings. As they walked down the heavily traveled road to our home, Johnny kept a close eye on his sisters. I can still picture all of them excited to get the Halloween candy, saying thank you and scurrying off to the next house. Our family is so very sorry for your loss. We pray God will give you strength to move forward as Johnny watches from above.

Johnny, still so hard to believe you're gone. You were more than a friend, you were a big brother. I will never forget the good times and all the laughs we had. I treasure your friendship and kind soul. I truly admire you. You had been through so much in your life but regardless of the struggles you always had a smile on your face. You were a good guy. Taken far too soon... Rest easy big bro. You were and forever will be on our hearts. ❤
