When I think of you, I remember your contagious laugh and your beautiful voice. Rest in peace John.

Dad, I always used to think that it was just cliche to say that you can feel a loved one’s presence around you, once they’re gone. But now I know that it’s not just something people say for the hell of it; it’s actually the truth. When I picture you now, you look the way you do in this picture. I hear your voice as loud and proud as it was before. I would give just about anything to live one more full day with you as the happy person you once were. However, I know you’re in a place of eternal happiness now. You’re surrounded by your parents, siblings, and friends that had gone before you. Things are just better where you are. It’s only been a few days, and I’ve had countless meltdowns missing the good ol’ days, but Sean and I both know you’re where you need to be. I’m grateful to have taken care of you and had the time we shared before you had to go. This void in my heart now will never be filled, but I think as long as I keep your memory alive and keep my music loud, I’ll be okay knowing I’m making you proud. I love you. I love you. I love you. Xo, Panda

I worked with Johnny at I95FM and KISS-FM. He always had me laughing and even though I was just a kid starting out always encouraged me in the business. Thanks for the good times Johnny! You and Cox On The Radio can do another crossover now!

You are a GREAT American…

The ON AIR light will alway be on for John.

I will forever be grateful to have you in my life. Much more than my brother in Christ , you will always be home to me. I will always treasure you !

I remember Johnny as a kind and fun-loving father and friend. I taught both Amanda and Sean at St. Bernadettte School where Johnny was my "room dad". He was perfect for the job, just as he was for playing Santa year after year!!! You were one of my favorite South Florida people, Johnny. Rest In Peace,

Will miss you always rest in peace my brother. My prayers are with your Family and many friends.

The family is in my prayers,

My condolence to you Amanda, your brother, Mia and your extended family just know that now he is in a better place God needed more Angels ?? I’m sure he is going to be rocking in heaven??

I will always help keep your memory alive Johnny, I have a lifetime of classic stories and great memories to share with family and friends! I really thought you would be around always, I know that sounds silly, but true. Now, I know you are at peace in Heaven and free of any pain. You always were a unique free spirit, soar, you are home! I know you are restored and in great company there. Peace and Love. XO

Johnny was a true and dedicated friend and member of our Legacy singles group at Potential Church. He loved life and lived it to the fullest. We could always depend on him to do whatever it took to get the job done! You are missed, Johnny. RIP

I didn’t know John as well as I would liked to have, as I only had a little over the past year to get to know him. But I was very impressed and left in awe of all the accomplishments, funny things, situations, and experiences, I have heard from himself, Amanda and Sean. To grow up having a dream to be in radio and succeeding your dream is something rare to be proud of. Not many get to do that. My jaw dropped at his music collection and vast array of music memorabilia. He seemed to live a very fulfilled life of doing what he loved, meeting many different musicians, and people of all personalities. He must have done something right along the way because his kids turned out to be very good people. He was very nice to me, and I hope he knew how much I appreciated him. And although the circumstances weren’t the best, I’m glad I had the honor of being with him during his last days. My sincere condonlences go out to Amanda and Sean, and all that was impacted by him and his life.

Never could I have imagined that after listening to Johnny Dolan in the late seventies when we were teenagers that we would meet at church when we were in our late fifties. He was one great disc jockey. Sleep in peace Johnny until we meet again.

Johnny was a bright and shining, caring, man who loved South Florida radio that he mentored a few to follow his lead. Our lifelong friendship goes back to my teens. He will always be remembered for his wit that everyone whom he came in contact with loved. Johnny has the golden microphone now and his spirit is with us all. I love you Johnny and as you always said "The show must go on"

To the family of Johnny Dolan…..please accept our sorrow and condolences…he was a great person in every way.

God bless you, John. You have your voice back now, ready to spin some beautiful, heavenly tunes. No more physical bonds to hold you back. Rest in peace, brother!

Amanda, Sean and Mia our deepest sympathies and condolences to you in the passing of your dad. I know you will all see him again in Heaven. Amanda I’m so happy you had the time to truly get to know your dad. Love to all of you. Nancy and Julian

I am so sorry to hear this. I met John back in the 70s. He was living down on bird td. And trying to get his career going. He was real tight with bill bege and Robert boone. They had such dreams. They began working at this station over on 27th street in Hialeah right by filer jr. High. We would pass by the station almost everyday walking home from school. We all hung out for quite a few years. I remember he took off for Immokalee to dj. Then he got the job at WGTR and then shotgun Johnny Dolan at WKIS. I would run into him in different places and we would reminisce. He was a legend in my mind! My sincerest condolences to his family.

RIP my friend. It was always fun when you were on the air opposite me when we both worked at clear channel. We would come into eachothers studios and just talk about music and all the old clubs from back in the 80’s. The fun continued when you would come by CD Heaven and we would talk for what seemed like hours about what we both loved which was radio and music. Keep on playing the hits in heaven Johnny! RIP!

Will miss you dear buddy. Go in peace. Sorry we didn’t get to speak before you left.

My dear friend Johnny , we had a blast working in radio in miami . I miss you and will always remember you. I ll see you on the other side my dear friend.

RIP..you are all now reunited with your siblings Paula, Debbie and Mike. Your parents, Ellis and your nanny.

I just found out about Johnny’ s passing. So sad. I met and had known Johnny many years ago when he was on I-95. He was always so nice and always made me laugh. I will miss him. RIP my dear friend. My sincerest condolences to his family.

Johnny Dolan was a great guy and lots of fun to work with. I'm deeply saddened by his passing.
Rock n Rollin' Johnny Dolan!

Johnny Dolan was my bud! We dated in Miami in the 70’s. He was the best! Always kept me laughing. We had the best time drinking white wine, St. Jacob,
and of course, listening to music…
Sugar Hill… He had the most albums I had ever seen! And he loved them all!
I will forever miss u Johnny and our incredible, young, fun times together☺️
Love forever, Victoria

So sorry for your loss. Johnny was my favourite Radio DJ at I-95
And listened to him for countless hours. You will be missed. My sympathies to the family. RIP.
