Susie, Connie, Brad, Ashlin and Tim,

 

Trey and I send our deepest sympathy. We have kept your family in our thought and prayers often in the last few years and Trey asks about Johnny often. I was saddened to read this today but know his struggle is over and now he is resting with our Lord.

Johnny was a blessing to everyone who had the pleasure to know him especially for us at New Covenant Fellowship Church and will be missed for a long time to come. Susie, Connie, Tim, Brad, Ashlin and all the family you are in our thoughts and prayers. We love you all. May God bless and keep you in the days to come.

I'm sad to hear about Johnny.

 

My prayers are for the family, especially timmy and connie. I know how it is to lose my dad also. Though, I'm sure Johnny and Dad are doing a little catching up right now in heaven! :)

 

Know that it does get easier, but you never forget.

 

Love you guys!

Matt
