The Funeral Service of Mrs Doris Olyott
It is with deep regret that we must announce that after a long battle with Alzheimer’s the wife of Stuart Olyott, Doris, passed away during the Banner Ministers’ Conference. Much prayer had been made for her at that time and for Mr Olyott the day before she died. There was much thanksgiving for her life when we heard that she had been called home.
A video of her funeral service is available here as well as in the link below. The service is incredibly moving and full of the gospel of salvation in Christ.
