Dearest David,
I can't begin to tell you how very sorry I am for you and your family. When I saw your Mother's picture I saw your smile too. May you find peace in knowing that your Mother is in HEAVEN with our Lord. God has gained another Angel. I know how you must be feeling and I wish I could say that time heals all pain, however it doesn't! Somehow we find a way to just carry on as your Mother would want you to do. Please don't over work yourself..... Always know I'm a phone call away and if there is anything I can do to help in any way I will be there. Time has a way of going too fast and we never seem to play catch up. I will be praying for you and your family too. Strange your Mother passed a few days after Matt and that seems like only yesterday. God be with you my friend, Tanya and Hattie 418

Rest in Peace Olga, it was my great pleasure to have known you.

My Grandmother never let a soul enter her home hungry and leave that way. She would always offer something. She say "Look in the fridge or take a snack" Time passes like running water and somethings are taken away. When I think of her, I see her smile, I hear her saying Danny let the kids play, I feel her hugs, and a part of me knows that she would be happy knowing that we think of her that way.

Gramma Olga,
If Roses grow in Heaven, I would ask the Lord to please pick a bunch for me. Place them in your arms and tell you they are from me. Tell you I love you and you will be missed and when you turn to smile, place a kiss upon your cheek and hold you for a while.....

Love you and we all will miss you.
