Glenda, Lon, Kathryn, Sharon and family, We were sorry to hear about the "Home Going" of your sweet mother on Monday. God called her home, knew she was tired of pain and not being able to do for herself and husband. She is now at rest with Jesus, seeing her loved ones who had passed away and she is now happy, no more tears, pain or sorrow. I will miss her very much, she was such a sweet loving lady and I will miss her hugs and smiles. May God grant you with extra strength and courage for your family during the days ahead. We love your family and may God wrap His Arms around your family during this time.

with love,
Martha & Jimmy Johnson
