  1. Dear Dorothy and family, We were saddened to hear of Billie passing. We enjoyed knowing you both at the Christian Church. Please accept our condolences and good memories. Sincerely, David and Peggy Shirar

  2. I am saddened to hear of Mr. Johnson’s death. But, I rejoice for him in the fact that he is with The Lord!! I remember so many summers walking for hours around Pioneer Park with him. We talked endlessly about our families, life and The Lord. He taught me many things about gardening and nature. He loved Dorothy’s cooking. When we moved away from Mooresville in 2007, he faithfully helped care for our home that was for sale. Called us regularly and even came to visit us in South Carolina with his sweet daughter and Dorothy. We love you Mr. J. I can picture you in the garden with Jesus taking a walk as you glorify Him!! Until we see each other again……. Debbie Luther and Family

  3. Bill was a Person to make You be proud to call Him a good friend, We will always remember His kindness. Our thoughts and prayers are with the Family’
