I am so very sorry to hear about Johnny passing my sincere heartfelt prayers for his family and friends.
I went to school with Johnny and lived close to him while growing up.
I know this is very difficult for his family prayers being lifted for all.
To all of Johnny's family and friends we extend our most sincere regrets at his passing. He definitely fought the battle long and hard. We rejoice that Johnny has found victory with Jesus! There will always be many fond memories of Johnny to share. If there is anything we can do for you please do not hesitate to call on us. In the meantime, our thoughts and prayers are certainly with you.
Marcia, I genuinely regret your loss. I hope that in due time your family receives God’s peace that excels all thought, so that it will guard your hearts and your mental powers by means of Christ Jesus. God is called the Father of tender mercies and the God of all comfort, who comforts us in all our tribulation. Rest assured that he cares for all his creatures and he would never bring us suffering. A soothing scripture I like is Psalm 34:18 which reads: “Jehovah is near to those that are broken at heart, and those who are crushed in spirit he saves.” Thus, while you await the Paradise where no one will be sick and die, may you lean on Jehovah God to cope with your separation from beloved Johnny —Psalm 37:29.
Our deepest sympathy for the loss of Johnny who will be missed greatly. He was a friend to me and all he met. We lost not only a great man, but a son, husband, brother and father who was a man that we all learned from about love and life! May your soul fly free in the winds of heaven!
To Marcia, Aunt Barbara, Uncle R.P. and Gerald, our prayers have been and will continue to be with you all. I know it's hard to let Johnny go and it will be hard to carry on without him. But take comfort in knowing there is no more pain and suffering. Johnny fought a long courageous battle because he loved life and he loved his family and friends. Now the fight is over and the battle has been won. Because he has transitioned into his eternal life in Heaven with his Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. He is with his other family, the loved ones who have crossed over before him. They all are rejoicing together in the Lord's Kingdom now. Although we were first cousins, I loved him like a brother. We spoke over the phone nearly every week. I appreciated his love and friendship through the years. I will see you again older brother some glad day. I love you and God Bless you Johnny, your cousin, Ron.
