Thor Olmanson Obituary
Thor became an icon of professionalism and expertise within the field of archaeology. The work he conducted and oversaw provided extensive information on the history and prehistory of Minnesota. He had many passions and talents beyond his professional career. He was very artistic, making leather goods and beautiful jewelry from stone, metal, antler, fossils, and bone. He traveled extensively to places such as Burma, Cayman Islands, the Bahamas, Kenya, Ecuador, Galapagos Islands, Mexico, and Belize.
Thor leaves behind his beloved wife, Jill Stoffregen, stepchildren, Sophie Draper,
Robert Draper, mother Barbara Fritsche Olmanson, siblings: Eric (Andrea) Olmanson, Schelli (Ambrose) McCabe, Trudi (ElI Hoehn) Olmanson, Leif (Kris) Olmanson, Lori (Harold) Swick, numerous nieces & nephews, cousins and dear friends. He was preceded in death by his father Myron Donald Olmanson "Dr. Don".
Thor passed peacefully at home, surrounded by his family and showered with love and kindness. Rest gently, Thor. We shall all miss you.
