To the Johnson family: I had the great fortune of getting to know most of you through Marlyn’s stay at Craigwiel Gardens. I have never met a more loving and compassionate family from Glen on down to his wonderful children and their families! I know that Marlyn was an exceptional wife, mother and grandmother by the way her family cared for her during her stay with us. If everyone loved like the Johnson’s loved, the world would be a better place! My deepest sympathies to all of you! I will miss you.
