Olga Baldini Obituary

A dressmaker by trade, she also worked as a cake decorator, a Singer sales representative, and finally as an office manager for the former Providence Wholesale Drug Co. for 29 years before retiring in 1995. She was always busy sewing and crocheting afghans, but she was happiest when she was cooking any of her wonderful specialties to feed her family and friends.
Olga is preceded in death by both parents, her brother Bruno P. Baldini, and her nephew John P. Baldini. She is survived by 4 nieces and their spouses, 5 great nephews, 1 great niece and many, many friends-all of whom will miss her terribly.

TARRO & SONS Funeral Home, 425 Broadway, Providence, followed by a Mass of Christian Burial at 10 AM in Holy Cross Church, 645 Hartford Ave., Providence. Entombment will be in Our Risen Christ Garden Mausoleum, St. Ann Cemetery, Cranston. Visiting Hours FRIDAY 6-8 PM.

To Olga's Family,
Olga was in my Monday night computer class and since then we have remained email buddies. She was truly a remarkable woman who always made us laugh. I will miss her emails and presence in this world. God Bless Olga!

It was my pleasure to meet Olga when she walked into my computer class room at the East Providence Senior Center. We quickly became friends and she was eager to learn how to opperate the computer. She was very inteligent and very creative. We all had a lot of fun in that computer class.
Marie and I are glad to have had lunch with Olga in Narragansett the day before she returned to Virginia this summer.
