AS A LITTLE GIRL OUR SUMMER VACATIONS WERE SPENT IN PA AT MY FATHER’S FAMILY HOME. SO MANY WONDERFUL MEMORIES WITH AUNT OLGA. SHE WAS NEVER TOO BUSY TO MAKE A LITTLE GIRL FEEL WELCOME. THIS TRAIT OF HERS CONTINUED INTO MY ADULT LIFE AND THE MANY VISITS TO MAINE TO SEE HER AND UNCLE CLYDE. SHE WAS ALWAYS LOVING AND CARING. GOLD BLESS YOU, AUNT OLGA. YOU WILL BE MISSED. SAY “HELLO” TO MY MOTHER AND FATHER FOR ME. I LOVE YOU.
Aunt Olga, your suffering is over now go to heaven and enjoy eternity with Uncle Clyde and the rest of those who departed before you.
God Speed.
Your Nephew Greg
The pain of losing someone you love is something that we will never get use to because God’s word refers to death as ‘the last enemy.’ May your family find comfort as I have in knowing that our loving heavenly Father promises us that very soon he will have our enemy ‘brought to nothing.’ (1Corinthians 15:26) What a wonderful day that will be!
Just a brief thought to let you know that others are still thinking of your family as you remember your loved one.
