Ola,
I don't know your son or his family but I so loved you. I enjoyed all of our phone conversations and the cards and letters we shared. The family pictures and you being able to tell me all about them. I will miss that. Thanks too for all the family info you were able to share with me. I hope that you have found peace and happiness. I am sure you are with your husband, and your sisters, Audrey and Judith again in Heaven. Thank you for sharing so much of yourself with me!

With Love and a saddened heart,
Rhonda
