Mr. Briley was the first person I hired as a brand new Service Chief, and what a great choice. We were very lucky to have him on board. Although happy for him, I missed him dearly when he took a new position to be closer to home. He was a dear colleague.
Mr. Ollice and I worked together for many years at the Raleigh VA. True funny story: Somehow I always locked my keys up inside my locker and he would always be there to help me get it open. He would always say: Stella one day I’ll retire and I will not be here to open this locker, so you better get to a combination lock. Laughing as I type this: I told him the day I remember you will be retired. Well, fast forward some years later he retired and I finally had to get that combination lock. He spoke often about his love for his wife, his grandchildren, his girls, and fishing. Truly kind hearted man, he will be missed. Amie, my sincere condolences, as well as thoughts and prayers for comfort and strength to you and your family. Tanisha aka Stella Smith
