To The Johnson Family, My Family. You Have My Deepest Sympathy. I Wish I Had The Words That You Need To Hear Right Now But I Don’T. As A Matter Of Fact I Don’T Believe Anyone Have The Right Words At This Time That Will Heal The Grief And Pain That You Are Experiencing. Only Time Can Do That. To My Sister Alfreda, Always Remember The Love I Have For You And Your Family. I Wish I Could Be There With You All But Circumstances Just Won’T Allow Me To Do So. I Will Be There With You All In Spirit. Remember That “Weeping Will Endure For A Night But Joy Comes In The Morning”. Love You All!!
