Juan Antonio “Johnny” Echeverria, 31, Frankfort, lost his long battle with addiction Thursday, December 21, 2023, but gained his heavenly wings and was united with his Savior. He was born August 30, 1992, in Frankfort to Carlos and Norma (Guajardo) Echeverria.
Johnny attended Lebanon and Frankfort schools. Johnny was fun loving and enjoyed making people laugh, joking around and enjoying life to the fullest. He was always giving to others and loved helping when he could. He enjoyed listening to music, playing foosball, football, soccer, and fishing. He was active in the recovery community, and was active with the Trinity Hope Center, Briana’s Hope, and 180 Recovery Home. He loved all of his recovery family and will be missed by them as well. He loved his Lord and spent a lot of time in prayer. Above all things, Johnny’s passion and true love was his family. His favorite moments were spent loving his daughter, hugging on his mother, and hanging with his brothers and extended family. Those were the times Johnny smiled the biggest.
Johnny is survived by his mother, Norma; his daughter, Jayleigh Crick; sibilings, Nicholas Hill, Jaymin Echeverria, Victor (Taylor) Echeverria, Dylon Hill; nieces and nephews, Anthony Echeverria, Jordan Echeverria, Brody Echeverria, Meyah Echeverria, Milee Echeverria, Mareena Echeverria; and grandparents, aunts, uncles.
