“Hi we are friends of the Smiths and met Olav a few times with is friend Mathew. We loved the joy and energy this talented young man exuded. At the Lefsa House he always had a conversation with me. The world lost a great young man and we can't imagine the loss in your family. Please know that we always asked Mathew about Olav and were happy to hear that they had spent time together recently. Your family is in our thoughts and prayers along with the Smiths. Sherri & Bob Carriere”
