I’ve just read this for the third time, it appears. I can’t help but wonder if Olga is still in the shop and doing well. This is quite a touching article, Janet!

And the update–So glad to know Olga is still there keeping the tradition alive. The kindness of women is not to be underrated. You were extremely fortunate to be the recipient of so much kindness, but you are a person who gives it as well as receives it.

Olga is definitely one of a kind. I enjoyed meeting her and seeing her lovely shop. I didn’t realize you went so far back with her.

What a lovely day it was. And I so enjoyed observing your reunion with Miss Olga! She has such pride in the work of her lace makers! And I know she appreciated your visit as much as I did.!
