Thank you MIgs, he was one of the good guys. He was in the Canyon Lake Wakeboard Club for years. Outstanding individual. One of the nicest guys you will ever meet.

He was always willing to help anyone out no matter what they needed.

Please watch the video on FB from San Bernardino City Professional Firefighters

RIP JohnnyDefacto

Just watched a video of his arrival back home for a hero's welcome. He must have been a really great guy to get the welcome home he did. Was pretty stoked to see this video and put faith back in the human race. Really sad that he left us in the most beautiful place in the west. I'll be back in Lake Powell in 1 week and will think of him and the videos and articles I have read so far.
