Hello, Brother Mark, You will always be in our hearts Me and my twin Hun'ney God seen fit to take you Home. Mary

On a recent visit to the Mayo Clinic I had the good fortune of meeting Henry Kissinger. At the right time I approached him and introduced myself telling him that we had two mutual friends: Rudy Boschwitz and Mark Olson. With that Henry spring from his wheelchair and embraced me - bewildered that a stranger would know two of his personal friends. He really had high regard for
Mark as we all did.

Mark was truly one of the "good guys." We need more like him.

I met Mark when we were both living in the Twin Cities and playing on the Honeywell hockey team. Next thing I knew I bought a business in Fergus Falls and he was the bank president there giving me my first loan. He was the only one I knew in town and he opened a lot of doors for me. We had some good laughs when I saw him last and he never forgot his Fergus roots. My condolences to Renee and family

We opened the Wall Street Journal this morning and received the sad news. Our deepest sympathy goes out to you. We remember him fondly from Emmanuel Lutheran. We always were amazed at his ability to predict budget income and be spot on when we were preparing the church budget. Again, our sympathy to the family

Rest in peace Mark.

Sad to hear you have moved on Mark, we had our fun times, you were a great man. All the best to your family.

Renee and family, my deepest condolences. I have such fond memories of my time working with Mark at Treliant. He had professional accomplishments that most of us can only dream of, yet what I most admired is that he still made time to connect with so many on a personal level. He gave me advice on the kind of man I should marry, always asked about my children, and sent me the kindest note when my mom passed. He left a great impression on me, and I'm better for having known him. God bless your...

My deepest sympathy to the Olson family. May you be comforted in knowing that our Heavenly Father feels your pain, and takes note of the tears you shed. He will strengthen you and help you as you mourn the loss of your loved one. Psalm 94:17-19
