Johnny McMillan was a great person and close friend to me as was her family.  Her father was a sports person and my baseball coach and her brother Bill was into all sorts of sports.  Johnny was a very pretty girl and a great cheerleader.  She was kind to all and it was a terrible event in her passing.  I'm sure that all who knew her will still miss her and wished her life had gone way beyond 1974.  Mike Howard

I have always wondered about her early passing.    I am glad you wrote about her   I remember Johnny as having the perfect "flip".  For you guys that was the name of the hairdo we all wore. Especially senior year  .

Johnny was in Flyerettes with me and we marched right beside each other and were in alot of classes together.  I went to her funeral and it was a great loss.  Sharon Miller Ray

I remember her beautiful smile and her great athletic ability as a cheerleader.

She died of Lupus in 1966.

Johnny and I were never close in high school, but I happened to walk by her room when she was in the Wright-Pat hospital for tests.  Just to show how times have changed, I sat on her bed and we shared a cigarette!  I visited her often after that.  And then one day I came and her bed was empty.  I wrote a story about those few months years later.  If I can find it, I will send it to Gayle.  Johnny was so brave during that whole ordeal--never lost her sense of humor.

I am so glad Mary Lynn shared about her time with Johnny!  And we would love to have those remembrances for the site!

Blessings and peace.

Gayle
