May God surround all with His Love, Comfort and Peace. We mourn but not without hope because of Jesus's Ressurection and we have hope when we hear of a beautiful new life in Heaven. Johnny was a great person. He loved his family so much and thankfully was comforted by family and friends who will continue to love and support his beautiful family. May we hang onto hope as God comforts our broken hearts. Love to Gabby, Eva, and Mia ❤
