Sister Jennie, an unplaceabel Icon for God. She loved people, and she gave them the one gift she had "The hard straight word of God." She never missed a chance to tell about God's love to one and all. Losing her is like losing my mother all over again. She would always listen to my problems, and she never failed to pray with me about them. I taught childrens Sunday School for about 13 years and she was my rock of inspiration to teach them about Jesus. She is going to be missed sorely. God has already crowned her with all the jewells she made here on earth. I will always love you Sister Jeannie

Sis Jenny touched my life. She will always have a special place in my heart. To her, I was her sunshine, but she really brightened my life. June Johnson (Orlando, FL)

Jimmy, Alice, Ronnie & Lavonia: There aren't words to express the love I have in my heart for Sis. Jenny (and Bro. James). My earliest memories of Church are of her up front on Sunday morning (@Cypress Grove) with all us kids singing, "I'm gonna run, run, run to see my Jesus". I would imagine that is just what she did when she arrived in Heaven. I visualize she, Mama and Daddy, Uncle Sam & Aunt Lade, Bro. Luther & Sis. Iola, and Bro. Troy & Sis. Melba all visiting...I can't wait to see them again...and I truly don't think it will be long. Your Mother was truly a woman of God and a blessing to all who knew her. My love and prayers are with all of you. Thomas and Dianne (Simpson) Green.

James to Pine Grove & Cypress Grove and revivals all around the area. Aunt Annie & Uncle Tom Parramore were usually with us.Sis Jenny called me "Lender" and referred to me as her little girl. I loved this!God be with you all. Remember she"s happy now!!!

Sister Ginny was such a blessing to my family. She knew my grandparents, parents, and myself and my wife Faye. She was a true lady in every sense of the word, and a prayer warrior. She was the same in church or out of church! She is a spiritual hero to me and will be missed. Our love and prayers go out to all of her family.

TO THE FAMILY OF SISTER JINNIE,
MAY THE GOD OF ALL COMFORT CONSOLE YOU EACH IN THE DAYS TO COME.
PRAISE GOD SHE IS NOW IN HEAVEN AND FREE FROM PAIN.
SHE WAS SUCH A BLESSING TO EVERYONE SHE MET.
EVERYTIME WE WOULD SEE HER, SHE WOULD SMILE, HUG US AND SAY GOD BLESS YOUR HEARTS.
SHE WAS ALWAYS WANTING TO MAKE SURE EVERYONE HAD EXCEPTED JESUS CHRIST AS THEIR PERSONAL SAVIOR.
THIS OLD WORLD NEEDS ALOT MORE SISTER JINNIE'S.
JUST CHERISH THE GOOD TIMES AND HOLD ON TO THOSE MEMORIES.

She will be missed by all who knew and loved her. Sister Jinnie served the Lord with all of her heart, soul and body for so many years. It is comforting to know that she has entered the Pearly Gates and is there with all of her Brothers and Sisters that were members of her church that had passed before her! She often mentioned in her sermons about going home to see her loved ones and what a glorious day that will be! So Rejoice for she is home with Our Lord & Savior! I can here him say, "Well done my Good and Faithful Servant"! What a true blessing she was to us all!
With all my love to the family and to the members of the Assembly of God Church.
Her Child through Christ,
Tammy (Abney) Agee - Sister Lizzie Johnson's grandaughter
