I wanted to note my sincere condolence on this day, as we learn to draw some peace and comfort from knowing how blessed we were to have known Olga. Her Birthday should be a time of remembrance, and I hope that the legacy that Olga lived through her inheritance you will embrace your fortune in that y

Alles was zerfällt, gehört der Erde.
Doch alles, was uns lieb ist, gehört dem Himmel.
Nimm Erden den Staub.
Nimm Himmel unsere Verstorbenen

To the Greatest Grandmother in the world!

    Thanks for being always positive despite your struggles and hardships. You have shared your stories growing up in the Ukraine/Germany and the fact that you were the only survivor is truly amazing. You are my Hero, a true inspiration. I hope to share your memories with Baby Fiona and instill in her your morals and values that you taught me.
