To Johnny’s Family, I am so sorry about your loss of Johnny. He was always so nice to me and I enjoyed being around him. The four brothers are together again. I know Bill Bradford loved him so much as all his brothers did but I was not around Bobby and Wayne like I was Johnny. You all will be in my Prayers, God will watch after you ll. Love to all of you.

Dee, I am sorry to hear of your Dad’s passing. He was a good friend and very kind to a younger wannabe racer “back in the day”.
