Obituary of Kevin Olson
OLSON, Kevin "K.O.", "Kev" and "Ole", age 66, of Brooklyn Park,passed away unexpectedly on March 15, 2025. He was the founder and owner of Allstate Door Company in Dayton. He was preceded in death by his parents, Carl Olson, Priscilla Olson; Father in-law, Ronald Nelson. He will be deeply missed by his loving wife of 38 years, Rhonda; children, Kyle Charboneau (Danielle), Adrianna Hight (Joe); grandchildren, Alex, Gabby, Lucas, Liam, Nelson, Larsen, Cal; siblings, Ronald Olson (Peggy), Caroline Meyers (Larry); step-mother, Geri Olson; mother in-law, Doretta Nelson; brother in-law, Ronnie Nelson; many nieces, nephews, cousins, other relatives and good friends.
He had an incredible zest for life and found joy in being around his friends and family - out on the boat, or on the ski hill. Family time was where he lived his life and he dearly loved watching his grandkids play hockey and other sports. He also enjoyed golf, playing and coaching softball, and water sports. Kevin never met a stranger - he made friends everywhere he went and truly loved being surrounded by others. His big hugs and loud laughs will be forever remembered and missed deeply.
The outpouring of love, support and messages from everyone who knew and loved Kevin has meant the world to the family.
Celebration of Life 2-5PM Saturday May 3rd at Willy McCoy's, 12450 Business Park Boulevard N., Champlin, MN
