I had no idea that Johnnie passed away.
He was a favorite older cousin of mine.
He told me to keep practicing on my mandolin. I wanted to play as good as he was.
I surely will miss you cuz
I just now saw this. God bless the family. He meant a lot to us. Dad thought a lot of you and so did I. Praying for the family.
I am so sorry for all of y’all lost. I got to meet this man only for a short time but what a precious man he was!! Praying for all the family!
David, so sorry to hear about your father. I had only met him a couple of times but he seemed like a really nice man. Marsha and I are thinking about you and Sharon in this difficult time.
David
So sorry to hear about the loss of your father. You and your family are in my prayers.
Love always. Learned of this too late to attend but prayers are your family blessings. God bless our success. GBOS.
HE WAS A VERY GOOD MAN & GREAT FRIEND, PRAYERS FOR THE FAMILY!
Mr. Johnie was A Very Nice Man with A Kind Heart, he was one of my Favorite Customers that came in the England Revenue Office. When I told him my maiden name was Carter, he said that we had to be related; we were Cousins from then on. Prayers for the Entire Carter Families.
I just read in the paper about Johnie passing. I called my brother Doug but he is unable to attend because his wife Lorena is very ill and he is her care taker. We would like to pay our condolences and that we are both saddened by Johnie's death. R.B and Doc were good friends and relatives to our dad Joe and we wish them the best. Our dad Joe, was a body and paint man like Johnie and they both worked in a time where there wasn't much safety equipment like there is now days. I loved to spend my summer and christmas vacations at my grandpaw Carter's farm in Humnoke back when I was a young boy. I got to know many of my relatives during that time in my life. My brothers, Doug and Billy Joe grew up in Humnoke when they were kids.
I’ve known Johnny and the family for years we had some really good times riding motorcycles and listening to the carters playing music but mainly the fellowship we had in church .We all got in church about the same time the Lord Jesus Christ is our King
I loved both Aunt Billie and Uncle Johnie. They were kind, sweet and I picture them together, singing with him strumming just like many times in my childhood. David and Jerry and families, my heart goes out to you. I won’t be there tomorrow (you wouldn’t want me there if you heard my coughing) I love you both??
So sorry for families loss. This is a great loss for Humnoke as Mr Johnie has been a part of our lives & families
