Olive, You might remember me as a teacher at Camp Boussac and a good friend of your mom and dad. I was googling them to find their phone number when I found their respective obituaries. I am so sorry that they have passed away, They were incredibly wonderful people. I loved them both. I haven't been in touch with them for many years. If you can call me, I would like to speak with you. Olive, I remember you well. I was Phyllis Brandwein. Currently, I'm Phyllis Denner, 917/881-6569 (cell). I hope that I will hear from you. This comes late, but please accept my condolences.

Dearest Olive, Ronnie, Risha, Charlie & Hannah,

There are no words to express how much I admire the way you have taken care of your dad and mom (grandparents) during their illnesses. It was my great pleasure to have been with Aunt Olivia as she passed into eternity on Tuesday, December 29th, 2009. Your parents have always been shining examples of generosity, love and man and womanhood for me and for all who knew them. I am blessed to have had them in my life and in turn to have all of you in my life.

Your loving and adoring cousin,
Faye Bailey-Morrison & Pap

Dear Olive, Ronnie, and family,

I'm so sorry and so sad to learn of Olivia's passing. I've been out of touch for so long, but y'all have never been out of my mind or heart. I will be at both the viewing and the funeral. I loved Momma Scott very, very much. She and your dad Scotty were some of the most important influences in my life. I will cherish their memories for as long as I live.
