Dear Neighbors:
We are so sorry to hear of the death of your dear Olga. She was a good neighbor and definitely a loving wife and mother. The Island has lost another one of its best.
Comfort comes in knowing she is no longer suffering and has peace at last. Be assured you and Olga are in our thoughts and prayers.
With Sincere Sympathy,

Crossing the Bar
Sunset and evening star,
And one clear call for me!
And may there be no moaning of the bar,
When I put out to sea,
But such a tide as moving seems asleep,
Too full for sound and foam,
When that which drew from out the boundless deep
Turns again home.
Twilight and evening bell,
And after that the dark!
And may there be no sadness of farewell,
When I embark;
For tho' from out our bourne of Time and Place
The flood may bear me far,
I hope to see my Pilot face to face
When I have crost the bar.
