BIRTHDAY MEMORIAM
MARY JOHNSON 8/15/25 — 7/28/17
If we could visit Heaven, even for a day, maybe for a moment that pain would go away.
We would put our arms around you, and whisper words so true, that living life without you is the hardest thing to do.
No matter how we spend our days, no matter what we do, no morning dawns or evening falls when we don’t think of you.
Happy Birthday, LuLu!
Loving you always! Trish, Lisa, Jerome, Rosetta, Ashli, Reg- gie, TeTe, and GiGi.
