To Mrs. Mary Johnson & Family,

Life in Christ is eternal, the love of a mother is immortal. So death is only a horizon; and a horizon is nothing except the limit of our sight.

Remember that GOD is our saving Grace and with him we can do all things. He is there to comfort and care for us all even in our times of bereavement. We will keep you and your family in our daily prayers, may GOD bless.
