It is with a heavy and saddened heart that my mom told me my precious friend Mrs Ollie passed away. I lived in Donaldsonville La and was the daughter of the late Mike Marcello. My mom is still very healthy 92 yr old and I visit Donaldsonville often but was Principal in Lafayette La.

Your mom was my sweet friend and we hugged and laughed always. She would tell me she could not imagine me as Principal as my school would be a PLAYGROUND all day long. We have laughed about that for years.

I am retired now as I have had breast cancer and am on my second benign brain tumor. Your mom was so wonderful and I loved her so very much. I will remember her for the rest of my life. I apologize I did not know about the passing of your mom otherwise I would have been at the services. Love to all of you: Rosemary
