Essie Lowry Memoriam

In Loving Memory of Essie J. LOWRY We can't believe it's been 20 years since you spread your wings and went Home...While many things have changed and the family has grown we are still grounded in the principals you taught us. We continue to thank God for the time He loaned you to us. Though we may still shed tears we have come to realize that's our private time with you. And as we cry, you and God are there to wipe our tears in the reassuring way that let's us know it's going to be okay. Your spirit lives on in our minds and even more in our hearts. After 20 years we still remember you embracing us with your warm hugs. The hugs you gave us with your wings that you spread as you went Home...
Missed by all that knew you but especially
Virginia, Antwyne, Orlando, DeWayne and Kenya Johnson

Grandma, I love and miss you more than any words I could ever express. I wish I knew then what I know now...I am sure I wouldn't have been so hardheaded! All those things you tried to tell me were right although you couldn't pay me to even think that way back then. Suffice it to say, I have grown through your wisdom and guidance. You would be quite proud! Thinking of you in all I do...
