Nellie B. Johnson 10/19/1919 – 1/14/2009
Posted on January 18th, 2009
Yesterday, we held a funeral service for our sister in Christ, Nellie Johnson. Nellie and her husband Billy (pictured on the left) were members of Farmville Baptist until they moved to Petersburg in 1965, where Nellie served as a deacon at Walnut Hill Baptist Church. The Johnsons returned to Farmville in the summer of 2006, and they both were active members of their Sunday School class and in worship.
Nellie had such a sweet and gentle spirit, and she will be missed by our congregation. While we rejoice that she is now with her Lord and Savior, we continue to pray for Billy for the loss of his life partner and friend.
