To Marilyn, and family, words can't express how I'm feeling, Johnny and I were more than friends, we were like brothers. Whatever I asked of him it was always okay. Johnny had a heart of gold, friends like him come very rarely. I lost not only a true friend but a brother. I will miss our many talks, his laughter, and his friendship. I can only imagine the heartache that you're going through. I know that in time, God will heal our broken hearts. I and my wife will always be here for you, please do not hesitate to call.
