Johnny was a great freind. He was a awesome wood worker. He made 2 Bench seats that looked like a wheel barrel & a red square wheel barrel that sides dropped down on. I really enjoyed his company when id drop by &see if he wanted to tag along. He took my noisey Rooster off my hands. His dogs will miss him alot. He loved animals & would do anything for all life. I will miss him. RIP Johnny no more pain. Buddy

My best friend for 4 years as a young teenager. We lost touch after I went in the military. Johnny, you had a hard life. I hope you have found peace. Thank you for the shared adventures of our youth.
