Hard to believe it has been a year since you left us. Bingo has not been the same and we miss your sweet smile and funny jokes. You were a very special lady and we will never forget you. Love from Cathy, Suzanne, and John

Olga, dear friend, I always looked forward to seeing you and visiting with you. Always a smile laced with a bit of mischief. I will miss you and always think of you as a special person, one who I shared a birthday with on Nov. 23.

With fond memories of my favourite Aunt Olga and close friend of my Mother Irene. Aunt Olga was incredibly welcoming to me and my English wife when we moved back to the USA many years ago and stayed with the DePrest family over Christmas. Her fun-loving spirit and generosity will always remain in our hearts.

Our sincerest condolences go out to Cousin Karen and Bruce for the loss of their Mother.

Love from Dan and Jill Eisele; and from our daughters Erika and Dora as well.
