Please accept our deepest condolences for your family’s loss.
The first day that I met Grandma Ollie at HH, she and I became instant friends and I was soon adopted in her loving heart. She was my cheerleader when I had PT and she saw me walk for the first time. I will always have a place in my heart for Grandma. Love and prayers for you all.
When you lose someone you love a part of yourself is lost, what remains forever is the love you shared.
