Dear Barbara, John and family. I am so sorry to hear of Ola's passing  What a dear soul heaven has gained. I can imagine you most miss Ola's smiling face. She always loved to keep a lighted-hearted atmosphere in gatherings. I remember she and mother in their short shorts and halters with hair pins under scarfs sun-bathing and sipping sweet tea or lemonade in the summer. They giggled often and shared time discussing all the little things they shared in common. As I recall, shopping for shoes was at the top of the list. It seemed to me that Ola was "well-rounded" as they used to say. She seemed as at ease tending a calf or tilling the ground as she was in red lipstick and stilettos headed to church or the Eastern Star. She and J.T. were Mom and Dad's dearest friends. I recall them going out to celebrate New Year's Eves together or taking small trips as a foursome. Ola was a secret idol of mine. I thought she was beautiful in every way.  Her "can do" spirit and love of God shaped  the way she treated every person as valuable and worth her effort. Ola sure loved her kids and grands. She was so proud of you Barbara and John: always. When I last spoke with her, she voiced how very much she appreciated your devotion to her in her senior years. You are a lovely family with a grand heritage. I know she is smiling down on you with J.T. at her side and telling the angels to watch over you until you're together again. God bless you all with the wonderful memories of a life so well-lived. 

I will always remember Ola as the first person to welcome me when my husband, Bill and I moved to Guinn Rd, across the street from Ola and John.  She was always pleasant and that quick smile would lift anyone's spirits.  She had a mind of her own and was 
an inspiration to those of us who knew her.  I am so glad I had the privilege of knowing her all these years.  God bless you, Ola, you will be missed !
                          -  Condolences to the family , Barbara Pullen


Barbara, I have many memories of your Mom and Belmont Heights Baptist Church.  She was attractive, always smiling and friendly. I remember us girls going to her house for YWA's.  As a young girl, I thought the houses on Keith were just beautiful as they were newer, etc. and your Mom had it decorated so nice.  Lottie Robinson loved her as well as Eloise Williams.  She lived a wonderful Christian life and I know you will miss her as you have cared for her many years.  We extend our sympathy to you.  Wanda and Harold
