| Bridgette (Fonville) Thompson | Feb 2 2010 09:39 am | | To the Johnson Family -- I just heard about your Mother and our Prayers are with you. Justing sitting here remembering how wonderful and supportive your Mother was when we were growing up is an inspiration. She will truly be missed. The times at your house were always fun. May God Bless each and everyone of you during this time. Always remember the good times. With Love and Deepest Sympathy. | | | Carla Glover | Jan 15 2010 03:52 pm | | My heartfelt sympathy extends to you all during this challenging time. And while you may mourn now, Matthew 5:4 (of the Beatitudes) tells us that “Blessed are those who mourn, for they will be comforted.” Knowing that, in itself, is reassuring. Further, your smiles will soon return, for you can trust that the memory and spirit of Joan – a straightforward woman with a sense of fun and even a bit of mischief– lives within you. Forever.
| | | Toni Hutcheson | Jan 15 2010 09:59 am | | Elaine, I am so sorry for the loss of your Mother. I know she was your best friend just as my Mother was always mine. May you cherish those memories forever and know in your heart that she is now safe in God's hands with peace and tranquility among her. I hope that you and your family will find comfort in knowing this and also knowing that you are in our prayers. | | | Frankie Kirby | Jan 14 2010 09:19 pm | | Elaine, it is my prayer that you and your family will feel God's peace and comfort during this difficult time.

God bless you and your family. | | | Tywana Tolbert | Jan 14 2010 02:22 pm | | You and your family are in my thoughts and prayers during this time. Having been through losing several close family members through the years I can only say I do understand the pain you are going through. But I can testify that what has gotten me through is my faith in God and knowing that there will be a time when those you have lost, you will see again. | | | Cindy Monk | Jan 14 2010 02:11 pm | | Elaine, my thoughts and prayers are with you through this difficult time. Remember the good times. | | | Elaine Johnson | Jan 12 2010 01:24 pm | | I didn't have enough time with you, 69 is simply too young to die, but know that the absence of your presence in my world will forever create be an emptiness in my soul.
