I worked on the farm while in high school. Austin and Grannie were there, and I hung out with Ollie. I flew in and stayed in the family house for the summer. It was hard work and enjoyable. Ollie and I went fishing together where the 3 States come together. Although we were both high school age, even back then Ollie was great: honest, good sense of humor and a hard worker. I am very sorry to learn of his passing.

The feelings of helplessness can seem unbearable when coping with the loss of a dear loved one. The pain and grief can be overwhelming at times. However, you can find comfort from the Inspired Word at Psalm 147:3.
