From you we learned the meaning of unconditional love. Each soul you touched is forever blessed for having been a part of your life. May we continue to love one another as you loved us.
A beautiful woman of true heart, and loving, gentle soul, Mama B could light up any room she entered. No matter how much time passed, she never wavered in her love for us. Her arms were always open, her love ever present. Mama B, we love you always and will miss you terribly. We will find comfort in knowing this angel is looking over us from above.” If tears could build a stairway and memories were a lane, I’d walk right up to Heaven and bring you back again”Gina Olivi Stone, Chandler and Jackson Hartsell

I have been sitting here for 20 minutes trying to figure out what I want to say and I can’t. You just can’t put Momma B into words. She was the definition of love.“Love suffers long and is kind; love does not envy; love does not parade itself, is not puffed up; does not behave rudely, does not seek its own, is not provoked, thinks no evil; does not rejoice in iniquity, but rejoices in the truth; bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things. Love never fails. And now abide faith, hope, love, these three; but the greatest of these is love.” For over 45 years I have been comforted in the knowledge that Momma B was there. Her dedication to her family has assured us of the fact that we were loved. A phone call away and she was there, ready with encouragement, advice, laughter, or even a scolding if it was needed. I will forever miss her twinkling eyes, her beautiful smile, but most of all, the sound of her sweet, sweet voice telling me, ‘I love you.’

Mama B, you were the Best of the Best! You were the epitome of what we should be as God’s creation. You had love for everyone. You left a HUGE hole in my heart on 4/12/15 that can never be filled here on earth. I will forever miss you. After telling my best friend (Paul) about your passing, he said…how fitting that on a beautiful Sunday morning when thousands of people are singing praises to the Lord, He called you home. I will always remember the wonderful memories you left behind. As I look at your picture now, I see a beautiful friend who was always there if you needed to talk, share, laugh, or cry. You were always “in my corner”. We were so blessed that Jesus allowed you over 95 years on this earth with us. I am so thankful that you moved in with me the last 3 1/2 months of your life. We had some great times. I only wish I could beat you in one more game of gin rummy. Until we meet again…I LOVE YOU !!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Dottie, Linda, and the Olivi family, I am so sorry for the loss of your beautiful Momma B!! Bertie was a special friend to me for many years, in fact since I was 12. I met her when she worked at the old Jack Jackson florist, and Bertie was like a grandmother to me. I remember we used to go out for Chinese food, as Bertie LOVED to do. I’m glad I was able to be at her 95th birthday party last year. I also know how much Bertie REALLY LOVED her family!!! I know she is with the angels now. My deepest sympathy to the Olivi family. Bertie will always hold a special place in my heart.
Bo, Dottie and LindaI am so sorry about your mother, I truly know how you feel because I went through the same thing. Your mother had a wonderful life and is now in a better place. She will always be with you no matter what. I have you all in my prayers. My deepest sympathy many hugs and kisses for all of you.Love, Marilyn
