I know Ms. Johnson was a wonderful person to have a daughter so loving, kind, and helpful as Yolanda Wherry, my coworker at McClellan High School. My heart goes out to the whole family in this time of sorrow. There are no words that can express the love and appreciation all of you deserve at this time. God bless you all.

"Precious in the sight of God is the death of his saints". Take comfort in knowing that He still loves you, too, and always will.

Gracie, although we loved you dearly, we could not make you stay. Your golden heart stopped beating, your beautiful smile at peaceful rest. God only takes the best. Your presence is missed from our family. The link is broken, but we will meet again someday.
Yoyo, Nikki, we know that a precious soul is now in the arms of our Saviour, free at last, free from all the pain and suffering. But she still remains in your hearts forever.

My Dear Aunt Gracie
GOD TOOK ANOTHER ANGEL HOME: God was calling you home. He needed another angel to help pour out the rain. Tears have fallen, hearts where shattered, but it was time for you to fly home. Your loved ones came to say their last goodbyes, to tell you they loved you, and that you will be forever missed. God took another angel home. I close my eyes as I wipe a tear. I just keep wishing you were still here. I will hold all memories deep in my heart. Through these memories will never part.
I close my eyes as I wipe a tear. I just keep wishing this pain would disappear. I didn't get the chance to say my last good-bye. I just didn't think you could ever die. I close my eyes as I wipe a tear. All of your love I will always hold near. In my heart and my mind I will never be alone. When my time comes...... I will meet you in heaven! WE LOVE AND MISS YOU FOREVER!

Seasons Greetings to you and your family. It has been an honor to be of service to you. We extend a heartfelt thank you for allowing us to serve you and your families during times like these. We know that during holiday seasons and special events, i.e. birthdays, anniversaries and etc. Our hearts mourn when we lose a loved one. And it helps when we have a point of contact that we can go to. That is why we put up monuments and flowers in cemeteries. Today, we light this green candle which represent life and peace (He makes me to lie down in green grass). As we light this candle, we invite you, your family and friends to light a red candle to commemorate the love and the remembrance of your loved ones. This “Memorial Page†will remain indefinitely on our website. You can post photos, comments or light a candle anytime.
Sincerely,
Kelly Smith GKFH
