Miss Johnnie always brightened Dusty and my Sundays and Wednesdays at East Highland UMC. We envy her as we know she is with Pastor Dan singing and worshiping their Jesus. They are missed tremendously as they were shining examples of the Christian Faith.

Great Lady worthy of much honor. She volunteered at East Highland UMC in the kitchen until she relocated to live with her son. Wednesday luncheons charge $3.00 and raise money for multiple missions, offer a 20 minute talk, and fellowship of Christians from all denominations. Johnnie would usually be at the window handing those in line a plate with the featured food of the day. She was an inspiration to all lucky enough to cross her path. God truly blessed her with special genes that lasted 105 years.

It's hard to imagine a world Without Aunt Johnnie Kidd. As we say good-bye, she has already entered the gates of heaven and she sees her Savior face-to-face. 105 years, "Well done, Aunt Johnnie!"

So, so sorry for your loss. A woman like Ms. Johnnie has touched so many lives. She and I sat together at church on Sundays at East Highland. I can still hear her singing each song that she knew by heart. Of course, it wasn't usually at the same timing as everyone else due to her hearing. She was a strong, tough woman who reminded me of my mother. Ms. Johnnie will be truly missed. She is in Heaven with Pastor Dan now catching up on everything. She was such an inspiration to me and made me smile.
