To Johny, family was everything, he was always present and cared for those he loved deeply.
Johny had a smile that could light up a room. He always spoke words of encouragement. He was a successful business man who pursued many ventures and built a career as a manager of operations. Johny was tech savvy and had the gift of charm. A natural born leader as he climbed the ladder to become an executive. As he pursued his career he also focused on building a business dedicated to his first love, music. His passion for music was matched by his talent, making him a gifted and driven music producer.
