That is a gorgeous family. I don’t know which one is Johnny…but I think maybe the younger on the right side? They are beautiful men all…with lovely smiles and I can see their good hearts. I am very sorry that you would have lost one of them. I know a lovely Healy family here…7 boys and 2 girls they had. They could be related. I would be very sorry if it were my family. I’m sorry for your loss.

Thanks for your kind words, all. Johnny is the third from the left. His identical twin, Brian is beside him and the twins are flanked by their uncles Alvin and Aiden. Johnny had epilepsy and had an attack in bed last week. Life can be so cruel. Johnny was young, fun, funny, sensitive and thoughtful and this is heartache for his parents and siblings – especially his twin, Brian. Life is precious. Make the most of it.
