We want to express our deepest sympathy to you in your time of sorrow. We are serving in an interim in Tabor City NC at this time and ready about Bro. Jesse’s homegoing through Groce ‘on-line.’ Bro Jesse was such a help to us when we were at West Asheville Baptist Church. He was not only knowledgeable about our organ but he always displayed sweetness of spirit in service and good humor. We are grateful for the impact of his life upon our lives. We shall pray for the family in these days of adjustment to his loss. Sincerely, Jim and Ellen Johnson
