What words are appropriate to express the loss of a cousin, love one, and life long friend. A journey that we started together....a journey that will never end. Though we oftentimes traveled different paths that caused us to be physically apart, But the memories of growing up together are permanently etched in our hearts. These memories that I speak of can never be erased, Even though you are not here physically, I know you've traveled to a much better place. God's great kingdom has a new angel....this much I know; So I won't say goodbye....I'll just wait and say "Hello." Jay Clayton Johnson and Family
