Condolence: One of the most difficult times for a family after a death is during the time of the first anniversary of the loss of their loved one. I found this to be true after the loss of my daughter, and even many years later it is a difficult month for me and my family. May your memories continue to give you and your family comfort, along with the hope that God gives. “I have hope toward God that there is going to be a resurrection of both the righteous and the unrighteous.”—ACTS 24:15.

Condolence: I'm so sorry for your loss. May you find comfort from your memories, as well as the comfort found in God’s word the bible. In the face of such tragedy, many wonder why God allows such suffering. In the bible, Romans 5:12 says, "That is why, just as through one man (Adam) sin entered into the world and death through sin, and thus death spread to all men because they had all sinned." How loving of God to promise what is found at Revelation 21:4 which says, “And he will wipe out every tear from their eyes, and death will be no more, neither will mourning nor outcry nor pain be anymore. The former things have passed away.”

Condolence: So sorry to hear of Mary Ann's death. Praying for and your family. God Bless. Allen is Alice Johnson Harrison' son

Condolence: To Shane and Family--We know you grieve deeply in the passing of your dear mom. Some women are just a mother, but she was a real Mom to all of you. Trust Jesus as you grieve and adjust to her moving to heaven. Through the blood of Jesus, all of you will surely be with her again. Know we love you.

Condolence: I know there is little to be said that will ease the pain you are going through. Just know she is no longer suffering in this world. There is joy in knowing we will meet again in a better place. My thoughts and prayers are with all the Johnson families and friends of Mary Ann.
