Cat Jensen wrote a sympathy message

“Such wonderful memories and laughter with Johnsie and Gummy at Fratelli’s, Super Bowl parties, partying on my deck for a variety of celebrations, hanging out in Florida together, going to the meat market for steaks and gambling/cards at your house. I will always have these memories in my heart for the rest of my life. Johnsie, you were a good friend and a great guy to have in my life for many years. I can see Johnsie’s smile in my mind’s eye and hear his laugh. Miss you already.”
