Johnnye was a true beam of light, and was happiest when surrounded by her family and close friends. She was gifted in many aspects of her life, from massage therapy to Native American Arts and crafts.
There are no words to describe the pain from the loss of Johnnye, but we are happy and blessed she is no longer suffering and has been restored in the presence of the lord.
We have, and always will, love you more than life itself, and you will NEVER be forgotten!
God's Garden
God looked around his garden
And found an empty place,
He then looked down upon the earth
And saw your tired face.
He put his arms around you
And lifted you to rest.
God’s garden must be beautiful
He always takes the best.
He knew that you were suffering
He knew you were in pain.
He knew that you would never
Get well on earth again.
He saw the road was getting rough
And the hills were hard to climb.
So he closed your weary eyelids
And whispered, ‘Peace be thine’.
It broke our hearts to lose you
But you didn’t go alone,
For part of us went with you
The day God called you home.
