Renny, I am glad that you once was someone very close and dear to me. I know that we went through so much together,some good and some bad. But we did get one thing right in our relationship and that was the birth of our beautiful daughter, Tomika Rochelle Johnson. I am feeling so much since your departure from this world and I must admit that you will be truly missed. However, I am so glad that you no longer have to live in pain because no one should went through what you did and suffered for such a long time. Now you can rest in peace because you are in the presence of the Lord and he will take good care of you. Until we meet again, good bye. Love, Barbara Jean Woodfolk.
