I recall with great fondness growing up a few houses down Lorraine Street from the Carmouche family. Although I was closer to Joanie and Jeannie, I do remember Johnny as a great adventure seeker - always cheerful, pleasant and friendly. My deep and heartfelt sympathy is with you all at this very sad time. God bless.

The two years I lived next door to the Carmouche"s is the most memorable time of my life. I never felt as fullfilled as when I was with Robin and the boys. They became instant family to me. I was much closer to them than my own family. Memories fade over time but not my time with the Carmouche family. It has been over 40 years but I remember like it was yesterday. Johnny was carefree and adventurous and I loved getting to be with him.

You are all loved and remembered

Mr. Terry

Andy and I are grieved to hear of the passing of Johnny. Know that you are all in our prayers. I know he is in a better place. We got to have him around a lot longer than it was ever expected and that is a blessing. He did a lot of good and loved his family dearly. We will miss him terribly as he was always a big part of the visits to Louisiana. We were fortunate to have had him in our lives. Blessings to you all and with our love.
