    Dear Johnny, what happened buddy? We were going to cash-in, buy a Winnebago and go in search of America. You were going to do all of the driving, I was going to pick all of the music and let you know if you were going to fast or following to closely. We've held hands through all of life's challenges, I'm going to miss you forever. Rest in peace my Brother.
