Johnny was a great friend, Its very painful to have lost someone so great, caring, and loved by many. He always had a smile on his face, loved to dance, and made sure everyone had a great time. Johnny loved to ride his motorcycle and would do anything for anyone in the world no matter what it was. Although I miss Johnny very much I also value the friendship he brought to us with Ranee. I hate it for her that she lost the love of her life and know its very hard for her and family and friends. I will never forget Johnny and hold very deeply the memories deep in my heart. Love you very much Johnny
