I became acquainted with Olena when I wasa social worker at St. Andrews. She was as beautiful on the inside as outside. She will leave a huge void in the lives of many.

So sorry to hear about the passing of Olena. I met her at Salem Rehab in Conway the first of December. We ate at the same table in the dining room for all 3 meals. I enjoyed so much getting to know her. She was also so pleasant and a fun lady to visit with. My prayers and thoughts go out to her family.
