    To all the family of Mrs. Eddy,
    Deeply saddened to hear of the passing of Aunt Olive as we referred to her. She has left a lasting impression on my wife and I. Mrs. Eddy was a faithful member of the church and served on the board . She never seemed to stop caring for her husband John, the grand children and family, but never missed a meeting, contributing as a vibrant song leader, prayer meeting, Women’s Ministry and various other things. She will be sadly missed as a contributing member to her church and community.
    May God comfort and hold you in His arms as you mourn her passing. She is now resting in the presence of Jesus her Lord whom she served gladly. Love and prayers

    Olive”s Family:

    We were blessed beyond measure to have known Olive during our role as pastor in her church for seven years. She was a faithful, dedicated, & intentional servant of God in the truest sense of the word. Olive was more than a parishioner, she was a friend to us personally. Her hospitality skills were so natural, just a part of who she was as a person. It will be an honour to be a part of her memorial service. May God Bless and minister to her beautiful family.
