Our love and condolences to you, Cindy, John, and Pam. Recalling our youth and the many special times we all had with your Mom, and Dad, our conversations, John's first jobs at the John K Burch Company including stories of his experiences, the trips to Chicago, and the conversations about the bowling and golf scores. Detailing the results of the bridge games with the Metcalfs and other friends were all fun to imagine as your parents added their humor about the results!
Your Mom was very smart and instilled her positive, hardworking, and inspiring qualities in you including honor and integrity.
These attributes she was proud to see in your accomplishments. She will be missed and be in our hearts forever.

Dear Cindy and John,
I am sorry of the death of your neat Mom. I thought your Mom was a strong, wise, very smart lovely Lady & Leader with a great sense of humor on top of it.
I remember when your parents bought one of the first color TV's in Grand Rapids. Your Mom kindly let a number of us Johnson's come over & watch, 'The Wonderful World of Disney' with you. It was a real treat! There are many fond memories of your Mom. I remember your parents always planted a birch tree in front of their homes. : ) I liked your Mom a lot!!
All of the Johnson Family feels the same as I and have you both in our hearts, thoughts, prayers & best wishes.
Love, Fran
