I send my deepest condolences out to the family of Mr. Robert Johnson. I think that Stephen Cavanaugh described Mr. Johnson perfectly. I agree with every word. I took care of Mr. Johnson at the Facility he was living, and I honestly have never met a kinder person. He was an extraordinary individual whose gentle way and polite manner was admired by all. The love he had for his Wife was more beautiful than a storybook, and he is a true example of how we all should strive to be every day of our lives. I will miss him dearly, and take care of his Wife the way he would want me to. Deepest Sympathy to his family.

We send are heart felt condolences to you Aunt Margie. We have some great memories of Uncle Bob and his soft spoken ways in which he handled life. We don't know anyone who had been blessed with such extreme patience and kindness. I'm sure he is in heaven praying for us all.
