I’m from Mount Joy and like to take long walks. I came across your daughter’s beautiful “castle” stone and had to see who this gorgeous baby was. Having two daughters myself my heart breaks for you. So sorry for your loss.

I came across a children’s book that had your daughters prayer card on the back and searched her name and came across this page and wanted to say I am so sorry for the loss of your beautiful daughter. It breaks my heart knowing she was taken so young. I can’t even imagine the pain it has brought your family. I have two girls (a 6 and 2 year old) that I will be hugging extra tight tonight. Well wishes to you and your family xoxo

I was returning a faulty cable box at Xfinity, and as I walked to my car, a lovely lady handed me a box of candy with a card and picture of your precious daughter, she said “I choose you…”.  Although I do not personally know your family, I want to add my deepest condolences for the loss of your beautiful Olivia Grace.  I’m sure she is the most beautiful Angel in Heaven looking down and protecting your entire family. May God bless you today and always.
Sincerely, Yolanda

Matt and Kristin Our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family during this difficult time.Olivia was such a beautiful little girl and the loss of a child is something no parent should ever have to experience.We can t even begin to imagine what you Matt, and the kids are going through,because there is a hole in our hearts a mile wide.Kristin we  never told you how great a mom we  thought you were but everytime we saw you, you had a baby on your hip and were playing with two or all three of the other kids and we  thought what a great mom you have become and how we knew how well your kids were being taken care of and how much you loved them.All we can think is that Jesus must have big plans for Olivia and he needed her now.Keep your strong faith and know there must be a reason. We love ya. and are always thinking of you.Love,Jim,Lisa,Jimmy,Cami
