I knew Johnny growing up in Newport News and during our school years at Ferguson HS. Johnny was always so friendly, funny and quite the jokster. He was so much fun to be around and just made your day alot better when he was in it. I remember his wonderful smile and that twinkle in his eye when he was "up to something."
I am so sad to learn the news of his passing. My condolences to his wife and family. I know he will be sorely missed... but what a joy he must have been to be in your lives!
The world needs more people like him in this world and I'm sure the angels above are smiling alot more now that he is around.
God Speed Johnny.

Hi Diane, I'm so sorry to hear of John's passing. I'll always remember him kidding around in the pool causing havoc among all the women, pretending he was going to splash their hair. He was a fun guy. We miss him AND YOU. Come back to us soon.
Peace,
