John called me Libby..he was a terrific dance
partner..loved to “swing”. An all around nice man. He will be missed.
I will always remember my uncle Johnny as a giant. When I was little I was in awe of his stature and loved whenever he picked me up. As an adult I had an opportunity to truly appreciate his wit and humor. I will truly miss my uncle Johnny and can only imagine the fun he and my mom are having!
