Greetings to you Rev. Johnson and my condolences to you and your family. Aunt Dupree was a great inspiration to me and my family. She always smiled at us, gave us kind words, spoke the word of God to us, and impressed upon us to always do the right things in life. I have taken heed to her kind words and many blessings from the lord have come my way. May the lord grant you and your family peace and serinity in this time. She will always be remembered in our thoughts, and we are blessed to have her in our family. Surely, we will meet up with her again in glory!

Cousin Dupree will be remembered for the elegant lady that she always was. I know that my great aunt Mattie Ruth McAlister and grandmother, the late Nadine G. Williams, both loved her dearly as well. The Williams and Garrison families express their sincerest condolences to the extended Johnson family.

Reverend Johnson, I was so sorry to hear of Mrs. Johnson's homegoing. She was a great lady and I loved her spirit, grace, and beauty. I truly believe that the two of you were truly Godly people. Please know that my family love you and will always keep you in our prayers.

I was so very sorry to hear of the passing of Mrs. Johnson. She was indeed a very classy and sophisticated lady whose style and dress were impeccable. She was indeed the First Lady of her congregation. We enjoyed her presence every time my gospel group would come and sing at Mount Hope Baptist Church. May God Continue to Bless Rev. Johnson and his entire family. Please know that the Unity Gospel Ensemble and I are praying for you.
