    Ernie Johnson, the best in TnT and in his field of work. He is the glue that keeps Shaq, Charles and Kenny together. In life, he is even more than that. Just pure admiration for him and even more for his wife
    who did not look away when she had the chance.

  • @JasonNation72
    @JasonNation72 3 ปีที่แล้ว +6

    When Ernie describes the woman at the orphanage saying "don't take this boy, he's no good," I absolutely lost it. 😭 God bless the Johnson family for giving this dear child a longer-than-expected, happy life. RIP Michael.
