I have known Johnny since he was a little boy. He was a very kind soul. He helped me at the Regency Room many times as he was always ready to help. We had many good times with Johnny doing the catering jobs. He always made us laugh. If you were having a bad day, seeing Johnny would fix it.
Our love and deepest sympathy to his family. Goodwill Hose #3 will not be the same without him. Rest in Peace Johnny. Our love.
