I am so saddened at the news of Johnny's passing. Johnny was my cousin. His father was my Daddy's younger brother. Our family has lost contact over the years. I have very fond memories of him as a young adult. He regularly took my friend (Holly) and I to the drive-in movies even though we were much younger than him and totally giggly girls. I have often tried to find him, but without success. I also have many fond memories of our family being together in Altus. I have thought of him often throughout the years and have missed his smiling face. I am so sorry for your loss. He will be truly missed by many!!
