17

     I dozed and at 4:30 am the nurse woke me and said “I think he only has a few hours left”.  So, I sat with him, kissed him, and said “goodbye”.   I walked outside and told my husband that I didn't think I could be with him when he died.  But, around 9am, the nurse came outside and said “I think he only has a few minutes”.  It was then that I knew I had to be by his side when he passed from this world.  I held my little brother's hand and placed my right hand over his heart as his breaths came further apart.  I talked to him and told him I would be o.k.; I said “it's o.k.to go now, little brother, I love you so much.”  And, I cried and my heart broke as he took his last breath.  Johnny passed into heaven a little after 9am on May 19th, 2010.

     Funeral services were held at White's Funeral Home in Azle, TX and almost 100 riders, along with the spirit of Johnny, showed Azle what Rolling Thunder is all about.  Forever in our hearts, Little Brother.
