To the Johnson Family,
My heart was so heavy to hear about the passing of "Ms. Elsie. I thank God for giving me such a wonderful opportunity to have had such a sweet and wonderful woman in my life. I called Ms. Elsie last month (August) just to talk and to see how she was doing, somehow, we got on the subject of me taking a cruise before I leave this side of the earth....after we had that conversation...the fear of going on a cruise was not there anymore.
I know that God has a special angel looking down on us all.
Being apart of the "New Member's Ministry" with Ms. Elsie was so wonderful...she has always made us feel so extra special..

To Buddy, Cheryl and June. I hope you find some comfort in reading the many cards and guest book entries, but nothing is like the comfort you will get from our Lord and saviour Jesus Christ. It will all come in his time. Tee-Tee was a very special angel and a loving person. She was always concerned and giving of herself and of her time. Just know that her work has been done here and she has gone home to do much better things for her heavenly father. She is at peace now and at a place where we all will have to go someday. I will miss her warm smile and humbling spirit. May God be with you at this time and in this season. Love you all very much.
