Testimonials

It was such a nice pleasure to meet you, and what you had planned for my father just took my breath away. It was so special to hear you tell us how he would just come over to talk with you. I think it brought him much comfort. Tha you for putting that Air Force article of him on your website. I am going to have a replica made of the painting of his plane to give you. Thank you again for all you have done to honor our dad. Love, The Gillilands

Donna & Kids: It is a sad time, we will miss Johnny, when ever I get to thinking about Johnny I go to the email of Sophie singing and I see Johnny in her and it lifts my heart. Our heart goes out to all of you, you are in our prayers, know that we are with you in spirit. Love to you all. Bev, Buddy, and family.
Sending Lots of love, prayers and Big hugs for all of you!!! Wish you were closer!! Uncle Johnny was a one of a kind!!!!
Uncle Johnny always had a smile on his face and a story about his kids to tell. Even when life had handed him some tough conditions to live with he always made you feel special by asking how you were? what were you doing? how things were going? He loved his family and was so proud of them and it only took a few moments in his presence to figure this out. I pray that your memories will give you comfort.
