Dear Johnson Family,

Dear Anna Belle, Gay and Galen,

Johnson Family

Please accept my deepest sympathies. May you find comfort in knowing that one day death will be no more. This is a promise from God. May this console you during your time of loss.

Anna Belle, Galen, Gay and family. Emmett and the entire Johnson family touched and helped improve so many lives that I am sure he is sporting a crown of many jewels.

I thank the Lord for Emmett and Anna Belle and...

Dear Gay and family
I remember his laughter and sweet spirit when I got to meet him. I loved his whistle and wished I could do that. I am blessed to hear the wonderful stories and see the old pictures Gay has shared. I am sure you will be blessed and comforted by the memories you all shared and the love you felt. I'm praying for you all.
Blessings,
