I never met Olive, but thanks to a suggestion by Kim Kommando's site, I read her blog regularly. It was entertaining, educational, funny.
Every day, thousands of people pass their last day on earth, most unnoticed by any save their closest friends and relatives. But Olive was different.
This one dear lady, helped by her friend Mike, used the internet to show us that all lives have value and meaning. She shared with us details of a life that began when Queen Victoria was still on the throne.
What seemed ordinary to her was amazing, thrilling, to us. And she showed how this "new" technology she could barely understand could connect us around the globe.
Mike will possibly post one or two final notes to Ollie's blog. And of course, you can still peruse the archives. http://www.allaboutolive.com.au/
It's worth doing. Goodbye, Ollie. We'll miss you the world over.
I'm trying to get back in the habit of writing every day. Lately, I've been working on character sketches. Some of those will find their way here, in the form of individual comments to this post.
