Good-bye old friend. It has been many years since I’ve seen you and your brother, Jason, but you both are etched in my memories growing up in the Center school district.
You were older than us and we always looked up to you. If it wasn’t Jason punching me in the face after an argument, he and I were out playing in the neighborhood. Lol You Choctaw brothers were built tough from birth. Family oriented, and always holding ear to ear smiles.
Too bad we didn’t get to connect as we got older. Nonetheless, you will be missed, John. 🥺 Happy to have known the Johnicos at an early age.
