Richard Johnson, Jr.

John 14: 1-3 Let not your hearts be troubled; believe in God, believe also in Me. In my Father’s house are many rooms; if it were not so, would I have told you that I go and prepare a place for you?

And when I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and will take you to myself, that where I am you may be also.

~Acknowledgement ~

Perhaps you sent a loving card or sat quietly in a chair. Perhaps you sent a funeral spray, if so, we saw it there. Perhaps you spoke the kindest words that any friend could say. Perhaps you were not there at all, just thought of us that day. Whatever you did to console our hearts, we thank you so much, whatever the part.
