"During these many years of service, Mrs. Johnson bravely faced the hardships and struggles that fell to the lot of the pioneer minister and his family. The general poverty of the people in those pioneer times added to the difficulty of caring for the work and rearing of a large family. Thus at times it was necessary for them to engage in farming so as to have sime additional income with which to meet their pressing needs."
"Pastor Johnson was forced to retire from the ministry because of a physical breakdown and in October, 1926 they moved to Haxtun, CO to spend the remaining years of their lives."
"Mrs. Johnson first took sick about ten years ago as a result of overwork caring for her invalid husband. Thus for seveal years she was in frail health and especially toward the end endured great suffering -- all of which she bore in a beautiful, patient, Christian spirit."
