I love you, Uncle Ollie. You, and your laughter, will be missed. I still remember when we were kids. Rick was playing in the kitchen (at the farm), and he made you laugh. But it wasn't just the hearty, robust sound in your voice that touched my heart. It was the warmth behind it. It was the love. Now that you're with the Lord, Auntie J. and the rest of the family, I can only imagine the rejoicing you're experiencing. You taught me a lot, especially when it comes to accepting people for who they are. Thank you for that. Thank you for loving me. I was blessed to have you for my uncle. Rick & Lori (and family), Scott & Julie (and family): I'm so sorry for your loss. You're all in my thoughts and prayers.
