How bitter sweet to read about Johnny, one of the Marian High classmates I most admired. Johnny’s picture perfectly shows the grin I most associate with him when we were all teenagers–I remember him mostly always grinning. He of course was so smart, but he was humble, loyal, good, and easy and fun to be around. I am glad to have known him. Clearly he was loved and enjoyed by his family and friends and colleagues! Johnny, you did good. Congratulations!
