“It is a miracle and I thank you all for making it happen! You saved my son’s life and you saved mine. I cannot imagine a life without my Johnny. God bless you all!”
On May 16, the Louthen family of Richmond was visiting grandparents, Martha and Calvin Bernard, who live on Turk’s Ferry Road in Stormont. The family was outside playing T-ball while Martha and others were inside preparing a meal when it was discovered 2-year-old Johnny was not in sight.
