Our hearts go out to you and the family as you face this most difficult time. What an amazing thing it will be when those asleep like your loved one will be woken up from their sleep and come back to life. This is a hope that keeps us going, because we too, have lost many of our loved ones. As Psalms 37:9-11, 29 promises, soon, we’ll all enjoy life on this earth at a time when there will be no more, pain, sickness, or death.

My sympathy to Olivia’s family. I have great memories of Olivia living on the farm next door to ours. I would go over and feed her cats for her if they were away as well she was a good friend to my mom, doing lots of card playing. May she RIP.
