I became reacquainted with Mrs. Olliff over the last two years. She had a great sense of humor and was looking forward to visiting my home in Florida. I will miss her greatly.

We are so sorry for your loss. Your Mom always tried to make the Wm. H. Walter Family Reunion. We missed her the past few years. She was always so happy and had a great sense of humor.
May your memories bring you comfort in the days ahead.
