Dear Jeff,
Today was the day we said our final “See you laters”.
I know you felt you were some how a failure but you were not. You have 2 very handsome boys who wanted to fish, hunt and do boy things with their dad more then you could imagine. Your Samantha is beautiful! She’s a fiesty little thing and you would be happy to know she don’t take no poop! As much as we are going to miss you I find comfort in know you will no longer feel you weren’t good enough and no longer will struggle with anything. Thank You for being apart of this family and most importantly for my niece and nephew! Rest In Peace…until we meet again!
<3 Jenn
Oh my darling Jeff
I cannot believe it has already been 3 weeks since you passed. I keep thinking of what to say and there are just so many (too many) things.
As I shared at the funeral I know how much you loved the song “Go Rest High on That Mountain” by Vince Gill. I’d like to share that here as it is all too fitting:
“I know your life on Earth was troubled
Only you could know the pain
Weren’t afraid to face the devil
You’re no stranger to the rain.
Go rest high on that mountain
Son your time on Earth is done
Go to Heaven a shout in’
Love for the Father and His Son.
Oh how we cried the day you left us
Gathered round your grave to grieve
Wish I could see the angels faces
When they hear your sweet voice sing.”
(Chorus repeats)
God bless you Sweetie. I loved you. I love you now. And I will ALWAYS love you more than words can say.

To Jeffrey H. Johnson Family:I read of your loss, and am sorry your dear loved one fell asleep in death. My sincere condolences to all of you. Please, take comfort in knowing that Our Creator has promised, that soon, He will removed all causes of suffering, pain, sorrow, and even death forever! May you be comforted by this promise, as you gain the strength and inner peace to cope with the very difficult days ahead. May I assure you, I am not trying to give or change your religion. The pain of loss is felt, regardless of religion.
Oh my darling Jeffery… I never thought I would see the day that I would have to bury my own child. I love you as if I gave birth to you and my heart is broken. You have managed to take a piece of many of us with you when you left. I just wish I could smack you for not going to the doctor. You would still be here with us. I know you are now finding peace in the arms of our Lord and that is what is keeping me from losing my mind. Until we meet again, my sweet man, I will love you and remember your beautiful smile and fun personality. Forever…your mom
Oh Jeffrey. We shared some wonderful years together, had a beautiful son together. You’d be proud of the young man he’s grown to be. As we were going through old pics and things I saved, I found the Paul Davis tape you sent me “I go crazy” made me smile. I remember you 🙂 I always hoped you would achieve your goals and see your dream through. I’m sorry that life was cut so short for you. May you rest in peace.
Rest in peace Jeff I will continue to do my best to raise our children
to be the best they can be. Now I need you to watch over them .
“Howard the Duck!”
Man I can’t believe this. I will always remember the diet pepsis being shot in my face for simply walking thru the door. You were a great guy Jeff and I’m sorry things turned out the way they did. Please know that James and Sammy will always know who your are. James is so heart broken that you have left him. It’s not goodbye, it’s see you later my friend!
