“Uncle Johnny was an amazing uncle who I love very much!! I have so many wonderful memories of growing up and spending time with him and his wife Gracie. Uncle Johnny was someone who had a quiet deep compassion for others. If I was having a hard time, he would not say much but come to me with a big hug and that magically made things so much better. He sensed others’ pain and reached out in a way of love like Jesus would if he were here today. I will miss him so much, he is a true saint! Fly high!”
