Wheeler, Johnie Ray, 54, Spirit AeroSystems employee. Johnie has left us to ride the heavens on his Harley with the big guy. For those who know and Love him, his wonderful laughter preceded him. Through riding his Harley, his family grew in the Brotherhood and Sisterhood of loving to ride. When Johnie met Janice, she showed him unconditional love, and it made him a better man, dad and grandpa. Johnie introduced Janice to the rush of the wind, and the freedom of the open road. They shared miles and miles of adventures. Johnie left this world sliding sideways, proclaiming, WOW!, what a ride. So smile when you hear Rumble in the clouds
God, Johnie and all the brothers and sisters are out on a ride through the heavens. Johnie wanted to leave a message to those who read this, tell your family and friends how much they mean to you and say I Love You, it’s never to late!
