Sharon and Renee, Just found out that Vincent died (03.21.13. We don't live far from Tranquility at Kennesaw. Would have liked to have come to you since you were so kind in coming to Dad's funeral (Euzell Johnson). Nancy and I have many fun memories with all of you and loved Johnnie and Vincent. They were good to us. Mom says she lost another good friend and of course their relationship goes back lots of years. Please accept our sympathy. Sorry we missed the service. I'm sure it was a good one with the military rites. He was a great guy!
Love, Linda Gail (Johnson) Stone
