    Dear Olga, You and Johnny were the the finest married couple I ever met. I always enjoyed being around both of you. You were such a joyful, sincere couple that complimented each other so well. I believe there is a wonderful reunion in heaven today, but I am so sad for the loss of your wonderful husband. May God's love and good memories comfort you until you are together again. Donna
