I have fond and loving memories of my Aunt Ollie. As a child I spent many days and nights visiting with the family. She was such a loving aunt. As I grew into an adult our relationship grew also. We shared many moments talking about our children. She was so proud of the accomplishments her children and grandchildren made. She will be missed by all who knew and loved her. I am sorry we won't be able to make the memorial service but be assured all will be in our thoughts and prayers.
