Johnny was a dearest friend. Johnny Burke was a country star and because of the man he was, he was a dear friend to his many thousands of fans. He was just that kind of guy, caring, lovable and quick with a wide grin, and a twinkle in his eye gave away to a funny comment rolling off his tongue. He made us laugh so many times, and above all Johnny loved to laugh. Now, he is laughing all the way to the biggest concert in the universe. We'll see you there one of these days in a front row seat. In the meantime, we'll miss you while you are on tour among the stars. We love you Johnny!
