Not sure what to say?

Although it's been years since "The Colon's" left Sodus. Olga's welcoming smile and big heart has never been and never will be forgotten. Olga and Candy were the true reflection of good decent neighbors and family friends.

We still talk about Olga's "mystery" spice recipe we added to our rice dishes. Every so often, on our way out the door, Olga would hand us a small glass jar of mixed spices, just one small example of her thoughtfulness. She probably didn't realize how famous...

Betsy,

We only met briefly, but it was readily apparent that your mom was a very loving woman. Your kind spirit is a reflection of such love, and will only shine brighter as a beacon of your mother's soul.

To the Colon Family:

There are no words that we can say to heal your pain, but our prayers go out to Olga and your family. I know my parents (Puqui & Carmen Rosa) are sad and heartbroken for not being able to here, but they have you all in their mind and will continue to pray for everyone. We just suffered the lost of my aunt by my dad's side, which is why they were out of town and we understand the pain you all are enduring.

God Bless you all!

Love,

The Rosa Family

May God bless you and be with you as you face this time of sorrow and may He give you hope and strength to meet each new tomorrow. Olga was a very sweet and kind person and I know she is with our Lord. I am Puqui and Carmen daughter and I remember many times when we went to visit for group prayers.
My parents were sadden to hear of the news. Our thought our with you and the whole family. De colors Olga.

Betsy,
Although I recently met your mother, I saw her as a loving beautiful person. It's no surprise, in knowing you for many years and experiencing all the joy you bring to so many people in so many ways. She will live through you and in your heart always.

Betsy and the whole Colon family,

I was saddened to hear about the loss of your mother. My prayers are for you and your family during this time of grief.

Nettie,

I just heard about your Mom and I'm so sorry. I only met her a couple of times, but it was very apparent where you get your care for other people, your love of life, and your infectous smile. Our thougthts and prayers will be with her at St Pauls this weekend.

We are very sorry for the loss of your mom Olga. She was a great lady. We knew Olga for a very long time, and when we heard about her passing it was very hard to believe. She is in God's care now. May God comfort all of you during this very sad times.
Olga, may you rest in peace.....De Colores!

Dear Annette & family - I am sorry for your loss. I was very sad to hear about your mom. No words can ever convey what we feel and want to say. We just lost my grandmother this morning, and I know all too well the pain. But with family and love, it can comfort us.

This is something I read at my father's service a few years ago. This poem has brought me alot of comfort, and I hope in time can bring you some.

"Your journey has been long, and now must end. Your life has been full...
