Please accept our deepest sympathies. Olive was a childhood friend of our mother, Marjorie (Thistle) Brown. Along with Ruth Seldon, it is rare to see such a genuine friendship extend from elementary school. I still remember their laughter as they enjoyed each others company so much.

Dear Auntie Olive,
May you rest in peace. I will always remember how you got a "big kick" out of us kids. You were a special lady.

Love to all Family,

Susan

It was a real joy to know and work with Olive while I was Pastor of Woburn UMC. The times we spent doing services at the nursing home were a real joy. She was a wonderful person, and I will long remember her for her devotion to her church.
