Mr. Johnson and Family,
What a small world we live in!! I just had lunch at Bill's with you and Mrs. Johnson a couple of weeks ago. We talked about you being a customer of mine at C&S. I didn't realize until today that Mrs. Johnson worked with my momma at Southern Bell for many years. I remember her from earlier days but didn't recongize her the day we had lunch.
I am so sorry for your loss. I know how hard it must be for you after being together for so many years. You are in my prayers. I pray your memories will give you comfort.
