Johnnie and Family,
I am so very sorry for your loss. My thoughts will be with you.
He was the best. I rented space from him and Johnnie at the transmission shop. It was so much fun to go back there and visit because everyone was really so nice.
He was always always so forgiving of the rent not on time. Just great. In retrospect, I have nothing but love . I know the immediate family will miss him. ♥️
