Ronnie and family,
So very sorry to hear the news about “Miss Ollie”. She was a super sweet lady. I used to stop and say or wave to her when she was sitting on the front porch in her swing when I would leave Donna’s on Friday’s after she did me hair. Miss Ollie always had a sweet smile for me and thanked me for saying hello to her.
Please know you are in my thoughts and prayers during this difficult time.
Thinking of you and your family.
Ronnie, Scottie, and Jack,
I was so sorry to hear about your mother and grandmother. I have very fond memories of her and know that her passing leaves a void in your family that is impossible to fill. You are all in our thoughts and prayers as you navigate these tough times, and I hope this week can be filled with all the great memories you have with this very special lady.
Sincerely,
Natalie and Graham Miller
Ronnie–
I wish you strength and the best of memories of your mother. May all the joy she brought you sustain you always.
Ronnie we met many years ago when Ollie was living on Matthews Mill. Ollie was my floor lady at Kentucky Pants about 45 years ago. She was always kind and a very sweet lady. I quit working after having my first child but kept in contact with Olllie for awhile but you know how life is busy and we sometiimes lose track of each other. Just wanted you to know there are alot of people who loved your mother. I am one of them. Youand family will be in my prayers.May God keep his loving arms around you and give you comfort in knowing Ollie is walking streets of gold and no pain in her body now.
