I want to send my regrets that my Uncle Johnny has passed away. I will sorely miss him. Uncle Johnny throughout my lifetime when ever I saw him would every time extend to me that he cared about me & how I felt. I felt comfortable & included at all times as a family member. It was nice to enjoy him & our family. It was not his sense of humor ( which I loved). It was his kind words drawing me to be part of the group of family. I felt that I belonged. It was his kind eyes very warmly acknowledging me. It was his hands inviting me to sit & be a part. It was his watching out making sure I was OK. I felt his love for me. It was personal. I felt his love for me. But then I saw his love for Aunt Adele, my beloved aunt adele. I felt his love for each of my sisters & brothers. He loved my mother so much. He is a most important part of our whole family. Something is missing with Uncle Johnny gone. Most of all, I saw his actions show his love for all of us.
I felt like laughing when I was near him because he always saw the bright side of things in life around us. He was a Most Alive Person. And I loved being around my Uncle Johnny. I love you cousin Steve. I regret your loss of a great dad.
I love you cousin Marsha. I send you my heartfelt regrets that your dad has left us. I love you cousin Keith. My hugs to us for your loss. I love you cousin Elaine. For the loss of you daddy that was a great presence in your life - as well as us all.
I felt valued & loved when I was around my uncle Johnny. I liked how I felt about myself when I was around him. I was lucky to have him for My Uncle throughout my life to the present.
I love Uncle Johnny & Aunt Adele.. Hugs & Kisses to you both!
