Ollie was a member of the Gospel Defenders Church in Chowchilla, where she taught Sunday School for many years. She also was a member of The First Assembly of God in Merced. She was a retired baker and cannery worker. She was such a hard worker. She is survived by her loving family and many friends. Many days you would find Ollie in her kitchen making light bread and pies with her grandchildren and great grandchildren. She truly was our angel in disguise. She had such a kind heart and giving spirit. She was loved by all. This is not a sorrowful time for our family. This is a time for rejoicing. We know she is together with her son, husband and other loved ones gazing upon the face of Jesus, her and our precious savior.

I am so sorry for your loss. Ollie lived her life here on earth so that someday she would be able to rejoice in eternity with the Lord. I know it brings you comfort knowing that she is walking the streets of gold and living in the great mansion with her loved ones that have already passed on. May God be with you during this time and help you find peace during this time of grief.
