I knew Olympia when she lived in Pardeeville. We had many good memories together. I lost touch with her and every year on her birthday would wish I had contact to send her a card (as I always did when she lived here). I love the picture. That's just the way I remember her. I would always smile to myself when her birthday came, as she never would tell anyone how old she was. Somehow I knew and kept track all these years. That is how I knew it really was the woman I spent many days with. I would like to make a memorial in her name to a worthy cause. If someone could let me know at sbrusveen@gmail.com, I would do that for a special lady who will be missed and who did so much. My condolences to the family.
