Olee cherished time spent with her family, the holiday gatherings and the birthday party celebrations for each family member. She loved attending school and sports activities of her children and grand-children. She was an avid bowler and enjoyed playing pinochle with her family and friends.
Olee was loving and thoughtful, always putting others before herself. She devoted 30 years caring for her ailing daughter, followed by many more years of providing assistance as needed to a long list of others. We are blessed to be her family and we will greatly miss her.
