Our dear Mom and Grandma left her family here on earth, to live with her beloved family, that are spending eternity in heaven. She is now with her husband Walter, son Virgil, and her baby girl Jackie. Grandma and Jackie had such a beautiful celebration when they finally saw each other. Oh, how sweet it was when Olemae walked through those golden gates to see her family waiting on her. She was able to walk on her own, with no walker or cane. Her contagious smile will be missed by all her children, daughter in-laws and son in-laws, grandchildren, great and great-great grandchildren, and friends. No matter her condition, her smile always let you know that she knew who you was, and that she loved you dearly. Olemae was the most faithful prayer warrior. When she prayed it was powerful and could be felt throughout the whole house. Even on the front porch. Love you always Mom, Grandma, and Mamaw.
