Remembering Olive with love and praying God’s peace for all the family .
We have been so blessed by both Olive and Dennis. Olive’s big heart of welcome, full of love for and faith in her Lord and Saviour, blessed us, as did her gift of hospitality and joyful service in so many ways. We do not grieve as those who have no hope, but such a loss is hard this side of heaven. We lift you up Dennis, as we have been in prayer for you and the family.
God knew exactly what I needed when He brought Olive into my life. She was my first Bible study teacher and a model of what it means to be a woman in Christ. She listened to me, made me feel loved, corrected me, taught me how to pray and was instrumental in my decision to be baptized. I was blessed to spend a whole afternoon with her 3 months ago. She will be sorely missed, but I know we’ll reunite one day❤️ My condolences to Dennis and the entire family. Praying for you.
We are saddened and send our sincere condolences to her many family members and friends; but are thankful for the peace of knowing she is with her Lord and Saviour. Please know of our love & Prayers for the family at this time. Trevor & Sheila ❤️
Auntie O had a huge impact on me as a child, growing up at Bethany. She was a godly woman, who knew how to have a good time, and no one who heard her laugh could forget it! May you (and the whole family) know the comfort of the Spirit at this time of mourning a special lady, Uncle D.

Olive had a big impact on me as a young woman. I learned a lot from her. She was like everyone’s mama and I loved her big personality and loud laugh. She is enjoying her rest and what a beautiful and wondrous rest that is, in the arms of her dear Lord. We will meet again one day.
Dennis I am so sorry to hear of Olives passing. It is so comforting to know that both Olive and Lynn were sure of where they were going. May you experience Gods peace. Your brother in Christ Kevin Rundle
So very sorry for your loss, with love from Gordon and Sarah Alberg xx
