In 1972, Mr. Olson Sr. gave me the opportunity of a lifetime, to work in his lawfirm with no previous experience.

Lyndon Sr. was a class act. He inspired many and led the way to a more successful and better Waco.
I very much enjoyed and appreciated his association with the Museum Complex and his continual and timely words of encouragement and generous support of our efforts will be forever remembered. My heartfelt condolences to the entire family.

We are sorry to hear about your dad's death. Our prayers are with you and your family.
We will miss the services because we are visiting our son in Florida for the holidays.

Having enjoyed the privilege of serving with Lyndon Olson on the Board of Directors of the Brazos River Authority, I knew Mr. Olson as a distinguished gentleman. A class act. He was one of the greatest members of America’s Greatest Generation. The epitome of Soldier, Citizen, Statesman.

Mr. Olson truly lived the Golden Rule and gave much to his community and church. He will be greatly missed. My sincere condolences to the family.
