I would like to express my deep love for this beautiful lady & her family! I have known & observed her spiritual example for many many years. Her love for Jehovah, was evident in every aspect of her life. One could only wish to be able to follow her faithful example. Dan 12:2a states that, "....There will be many of those asleep in the dust of the earth. Who will wake up to everlasting life." Odette will be one of those, because of her unfailing love & loyalty to Jehovah! Rev 14:b applies to her....."let them rest from their labors, for the things they did go right with them!"
