Our deepest condolences to your family as you grieve the passing of your mother and Baba.
We will always remember Olga and Bill for their kindness and good food, which she insisted we eat. Lol. Rick and I ( Rhonda) first met them when we had a renovation business and we were hired to work on their house, this encounter was the beginning of a friendship. In fact my dad (Rhonda) was visiting us and he went along with Rick to help with the job, Olga left such an impression on him, that to this day when I talk with him he asked about her. I (Rhonda) would often visit with Olga, and we shared the same birthdate, so we would celebrate together at Sunnyside Manor, when she lived there. Later I would visit Olga in Cold Lake, at the Lodge. Our visits were always fun, filled with stories and laughter. I really enjoyed knowing Olga and meeting her family members from time to time. I could say more but I won’t.
I pray that as you take this time to grieve, and yet celebrate her life you will find peace in the good memories.

My sincere condolences to all of Miss Olga’s family. I was very fortunate to have spent many hours visiting with Miss Olga and Pat. Although Miss Olga did not speak much, trust me when I say she sure had a voice when she watched the Oilers play! My favourite memory is when Miss Olga, Pat, Christina and I were watching an Oilers game. The Ladies and I were talking and out of nowhere Miss Olga turned to me, slapped my leg and yelled “shut up”. This made us all laugh but didn’t stop us from talking. Shortly after that Miss Olga slapped Pat’s knee and told her to be quiet. We had a great laugh. This is just one of the wonderful times I spent with Miss Olga.
May you find comfort in the lasting memories you made.
Blessings
