I have never met him before and didn't know him personally but what an inspiration this kid was and i'm sad that it's too late for me to have had a chance to meet him.
Johnny Romano was a kid with a big heart and big dreams and although he was diagnosed with cancer when he was just 7yrs old all he wanted to do was skate and keep fighting.
He captured the hearts of the whole skateboarding community worldwide and never gave up skating,surfing and having fun until his final days.
Johnny lost his battle to cancer last year at age 10 and i cant imagine how hard it must be for his family,i know i had nothing to do with this kid but i just cant help but feel touched by his story.
if you want to read his blog that his parents kept from the day he was diagnosed and they continue to update now go to http://j-grom.blogspot.com
It's a sad story but it just makes you think about your life and how lucky you are to be healthy and have your family with you.
R.I.P Johnny Romano you're an inspiration.
