I remember Ms. Johnson holding the door down at St. John AME Church. She always had a smile and a warm greeting. Sending prayers to her family.

Our sincerest condolences to the Johnson Family. Ms. Mott was a true trailblazer at St. John A.M.E. church. She was a faithful usher standing on the door with my mother Tommie Lee Grant. She also, held various positions in the church. A faithful cook in the kitchen. She had the best since of humor and a gentle heart. Ms. Mott rest in paradise until we all meet again. The Grant Family and St. John A.M.E. Church
