We are so sorry for your loss. Although we only met Johanna in person once, it was enough to make a lasting impression. Her sweet smile and kind heart showed. I regret not getting to visit again last summer but I enjoyed seeing all of the post with her and about her on Facebook. I am honored to call her great granddaughter, Corinne, my daughter. Our prayers and love are there for all of you. With love, Steve and Charlotte Zurcher

My deepest condolences to the Hightower’s. Johanna was a bright star who shined the most, when her family was near. I remember Thanksgivings when Papa would bring us over for a holiday visit, one of my fondest memories as a child! Love, and hugs to you all.
