Olga lived a long happy life full of adventure. One of the highlights of her life was when she flew to California to visit her son. It was a week of pure joy. She loved to go to her daughter’s house and enjoy the country life. She spent a lot of time and made many memories at home with her oldest son.  Some of her favorite things to do included playing bingo and visiting with friends and family. She loved to just sit and admire her grandkids from afar while they played.
