      To the Parsons family as Ron and myself moved to Goobies 2years ago from Ontario we always noticed a man walking the TCH all the time.. I joke and say we have a HIGHWAY WALKER.. also honked our horn and waved and always got a wave a big smile back.. One night at Irving he came to me and asked how we liked Goobies and welcome us to it.. Will surely miss his present in Goobies..
      RIP JOHNNY aka Johnny Walker
