John Wess Todd was the oldest of six children born September 10, 1932 to the late Norris and Carrie Lou Todd of West Point, Georgia. John departed this life on Tuesday, October 31, 2017 in Newnan, Georgia.
Wess, as he was fondly called, joined St. Mary’s United Methodist Church in Hogansville, Georgia along with his family and served diligently in various positions during his time there. Later, he relocated to Macon, Georgia where he joined the Unity Missionary Baptist Church and continued his faithful service. He loved to sing with the Male Chorus.
Wess retired from Milliken Mills in Lagrange, Georgia after completing 25 years of service. After leaving Milliken, he found employment with Mead in Greenville, Georgia and retired after 20 years of service.
He was preceded in death by his granddaughter Deidra, and great granddaughter Caelyn and leaves to cherish his memory four children Josephine (James), Agatha (Anthony), Veronica, and John Jr. (Laura), six grandchildren Antoinette (Antonio), Monica, Alexandria (Corey), Mya, Andre and John II six great grandchildren and a host of nieces, nephews, relatives and friends.
A precious one from us is gone,
A voice we love is stilled.
A place is vacant in our heart,
That never can be filled.

I want to express my condolences to your family. God offers a comfort and hope in his word the Bible. Our loved ones are sleeping in death but God tells us that this is not the end. We can have hope in seeing them again on earth. 1Thessalonians 4:13,14 tells us to have faith in his promise to bring back those we have lost. Revelation 21:4 helps us to see that this promise will be here on earth because preconditions of death, sorrow, and mourning will all be gone. Take comfort in God’s word.
