Dear Michael, Jill, and Natayla,
Sorry to hear of Olga's passing. I have many fond childhood memories from the time we both lived on Court St in Meriden. My Mom and yours would get together to make potato salad for Sunday School picnics held at Hubbard Park. May family and friends along with their memories give comfort during this time. Memory Eternal!
