To my longtime friend Robyn and the entire Johnson Family; May God continue to keep you and your family during this time; for in time things will become easier to understand and appreciate God's loving heart for all of us; I have learned through my mother's battle with cancer up until her death that God know's what is best for each of us but most of all when our bodies are tired and can't press on; death is our friend for in death we find eternal peace comes

Be Strong Robyn and Family

your friend Sonya L. Yarborough- Williamston
