May angels rest beneath you olive. Rest in piece, this upset me and made me smile. At least you had a happy life, and this song will forever remind me of you. :)
Pack up your troubles in your old kit bag and smile smile smile.. <3
What a wonderful and beautiful video. I have only just discovered her videos and think she is an amazing woman. May she rest in peace. Gone but never forgotten. 5*
rip olive your heart is big and there will be no one else like you.. you have experinced more than most people in this life and you have used your life wisly
In her final post, dated June 26, an increasingly frail Olive noted she couldn't "shake off that bad cough''
She also: "read a whole swag of email messages and comments from my internet friends today, and I was so pleased to hear from you. Thank you, one and all.''
She was born in 1899, and would have turned 109 on October 20.
Olive's funeral will be held at Palmdale Cemetery, on the NSW Central Coast, late this week.
Happy Birthday OLIVE!!!!!!! WOW!!! I would love to hear your stories first hand!!! Especially the ones where all the English & Irish were forced to Australia and start from scratch, before your time, but I am sure you heard the stories first hand!!! Love to have tea with you any day, a cuppa!!!
What a wonderful lady and find on the internet. I am looking forward to reading her stories and checking out what she has to say. You can learn a lot from a model human being like her.
shes my great great granny :D how goods that a living great great granny and my nana only just found out found out (like 3 years ago anyway) i havent met her yet but i hope to soon
This is great indeed, i remember my granddad singing this to me before he died in 1971 aged 78, he told me about this being a popular song during WW1 and how they would sing songs like this all the time - great going Olive - keep it up your the best!
She is lovely... I love her "blob"; there is so much to be learned from her. Mike: thank you for sharing Ollie's world with us. The world is in need of people like her. Her story is awesome... it's hard to believe that she was able to handle everything that life threw at her. Monica.
