Dear friends, family, and members of the Myrtle Beach community,

We invite you to join us in supporting a true legend, Johnny Guitar, during his journey to recovery. For decades, Johnny has been the heart and soul of the Myrtle Beach music scene. His extraordinary talent, boundless generosity, and selfless contributions have touched the lives of countless individuals. Now, it's our turn to give back.

Recently, Johnny suffered a major stroke that has left him in a rehab facility. While we remain hopeful for his complete recovery, we recognize that the road ahead will be filled with challenges, both physical and emotional. The impact of Johnny's absence is felt not only by his family and friends but also by the entire community that he has served tirelessly for years.

Johnny's humility, generosity, and compassion have been his defining traits. He's helped countless budding musicians by hosting open mic nights, sharing his wisdom, and selflessly giving his time and expertise. If you've ever experienced his expert guitar repairs, guitar lessons, or enjoyed the incredible music he's brought to our lives, you've witnessed his dedication firsthand.

Now, it's time for us to come together and show Johnny the love and support he's always given us. While Johnny would never ask for help himself, we can make a difference by easing the financial burden that comes with medical expenses, rehabilitation, and the journey to recovery.

How You Can Help:

Your contributions to this GoFundMe campaign will directly support Johnny's medical expenses, rehabilitation costs, and any additional needs that arise during this challenging time. Every donation, no matter the size, will make a significant impact. Let's rally together to show Johnny that he's not alone on this journey.

Spread the Word:

We encourage you to share this campaign with your networks, whether it's through social media, emails, or word of mouth. The more people we reach, the stronger our support system for Johnny will become.

Let's Give Back:

Johnny Guitar has enriched our lives in countless ways. He's given us music that lifts our spirits and moments that will forever be cherished. Now, it's our turn to give back. Your support and generosity will not only aid Johnny in his recovery but also remind him of the incredible community he's built over the years.

Thank you for being a part of this effort. Together, we can make a difference in Johnny's life and show him just how much he means to all of us.

With heartfelt gratitude,

Family of John Sparks
