I knew Johnny well. He graduated with my brother from GHS and was at the top if not Valedictorian of that class. He was an athlete and was well liked.
He attended Virginia Tech and was in the School of Engineering. He could build as well as restore homes. Later he worked with his brother, Rueben, in their tree cutting and topping business.
Johnny was a good guy and a close friend of our family. I am deeply sorry to hear of his passing. Condolences to the family.
