I just wanted to write a note in here about Susan's Grandma, Laura Monica Olsen. She passed away on February 13, 2007. She was 91 years old.
She left behind a legacy like no one else that I have ever known. She was an amazing woman and an incredible teacher.
She had 12 children, 78 grandchildren, 135 great-grandchildren and 54 great-great-grandchildren. Isn't that incredible! 279 direct offspring and she knew everyone's name and something about them. She almost single-handedly built a community.
I consider myself very lucky to have known her. She will be missed by all.
