Mrs. Oliver was a very special Meals-On-Wheels client; both to me and Mike Wright. She will be missed but never forgotten.

I looked forward to her nightly calls to check on me after Mike passed away. She always had something positive to say and loved to make me laugh.

If I had known my grandmother, Mrs. Oliver would have been that person.
I have several of her pillows that she made and will cherish them for many years.

I know that Cassey misses her and that Mrs. Oliver dearly loved her.

I'm so glad that I was privledged to know such as very wonderful person with a great attitude and sense of humor.

I delivered meals on wheels to Mrs. Oliver, She was always so sweet and had the greatest laugh. She was always so kind and smiled at you and was so thankful for each day. I will miss her, and she loved that dog of hers!
