Sorry for your loss praying for you and the family
To my cousins Emma and the entire Families praying for you all. I loved to hear him sing, Precious Lord. He will truly be missed.
I am so sorry to hear about his passing. He was a very kind man and will be missed. Prayers for his family.
Sending prayers and condolences to the Johnson and Watkins Family. Ella Parrott
This man! How he will be missed! He was a force to be reckoned with in our neighborhood, very protective. I will miss "visiting" him at his swing outside. I will miss seeing him in his swing, telling God what needed to be done on earth I suspect. My prayers for you, Emma, Richard and family are daily. May God be near to you at this time and in the weeks ahead.
Condolences to the Johnson family. We will miss him singing lifting up the name of Jesus. We love Sam but God loves him best. Sincerely the Hunter family.
Our staff will continue to keep your family in our prayers. We thank you for allowing us to serve your family.
