I want the Orcutt family and extended family to know how much I loved Johnny. Throughout my life, I've been blessed to have had elders around to remind me of the true meaning of life; Love, Respect and Acceptance. We often get distracted by technology and neglect to slow down to enjoy life and the people around us. Johnny was always easy to talk with and it wasn't always by text or email. I like to think of him as part of the "Front Porch" generation, where neighbors actually talked and knew one another.
Johnny loved coming to Oregon twice a year for almost eight years and we loved having him here. He would often say he loved being here because he had his own room, we fed him, washed his clothes and gave him a recliner. In his words "what more could I ask for?" Having him here was an honor and I'm grateful to have spent so much time with him.
Family was very important to him and he loved each and every one. Johnny was so proud of his family and expressed his love often.
Johnny was a man of love, respect and acceptance.
My heart is broken, I love you Johnny.
