    The Rest of the Story

    By Jeremy | May 24, 2007

    In response to last week's webcast, Emily asked about Johnny Underwood's back story. Apparently he passed away this April after a lifelong battle with juvenile diabetes. I found a moving tribute here.
    Johnny had a disease that would normally serve as a viable excuse not to be as heavily involved in things like he was. He was born with “juvenile diabetes”, so severe that he wasn’t expected to make it past the age of 30. In the year 2000, a gangrenous infection set in to his foot, and his right leg had to be amputated to save his life. When people would go to the hospital to encourage him, he was encouraging them. That was how Johnny was. As soon as he was well enough from the surgery, he was back at the church doing what he loved best: serving the Lord doing kingdom work.
