Johnny Perry

[work2hard2often]

I went to high school with Johnny. In fact I spent a few Saturday nights partying with him. Johnny was born big. He was twice my size at 17 and had hands the size of my feet. At that time the only lifting he did was what the Football coach made him. But when he did, he could pick up the entire gym. I lost contact with him after HS until I saw him at a music festival at the coast 3 or 4 years later. He had then found his calling and you could tell it. He stood out of the crowd.

But noone could ever say that Johnny wasn't the nicest guy. He would have done anything for any of his friends. When we stumbled accross each other you would have never known it had been years. He took over the crowd with his loud voice and heavy hands. I hate I lost touch with him over the years and his death was way too early. I am glad I found this thread. It brought back memories of some of the things that we did in High School. I think I will try to find some old photos of back then. Thanks BigMike.
