My most sincere prayers and condolences are with this family. I had the pleasure of being a student of Mrs. Graves. At George Washington Carver elementary school in Michigan. I truly love Mrs. Graves. Her and my mom were friends. I leaned so much while being a student of hers. I also felt the love , the concern, the passion this lady had for all of her students!!! I'm so sad that I didn't get a chance to see you prior to your expiration . I'd just like to say thank you and may you continue to rest well with God in heaven
I met Olga Graves quite a few years ago, at which time she gave me the once-over, as a mother is want to do when she sees a woman with her son. She must have been a very special and wonderful woman to have raised two exceptional sons. May she rest in Peace.
