The only reason I have a heart is because the heart Olive had was to big to keep so she gave me half of it! If not not for her, my soul would be lost...I love her and miss her every day. She was the best mom and the mom we all need! If only we all had the mother I had, we would all live happily ever after! I love you mom. Your son Prun. - Posted by: Dillon (Son) on: May 19, 2019
