As DJ would say… “Love Ya, See Ya, Byeâ€
I loved DJ! He was unique and like my father, Walter Alsheimer said if you put Clark Gable and DJ Johnson in a room filled with women DJ would come out on top! He was charismatic and kind! Rest in Peace my dear friend! See you again!! â¤ï¸
How could you not love this guy? We have so many wonderful memories of him. He certainly will be sadly missed. With much sincerity, Joyce and Ron
