Grandpa Olson made it to 93! He passed away Sunday morning. The last few years have been hard on him and us, watching him lose his memory and not know who we are. It's comforting to know he's with Grandma now. Grandpa was a WWII Veteran (Navy), and spent a tour of duty in Okinawa, Japan as an Engineer during the war. He was a hard worker, and very mechanically inclined. If it had parts and didn't work, Grandpa could figure out how to make it work again. He was beloved by his wife, children, grandchildren, and great grand children. He was always dedicate to church, and his family. He always had a project to work on, and taught me how to fix things around the house, and drive his riding lawnmower. He was always patient, kind, and a good role model. He is very loved and will be missed. See you in about 60 or so years Grandpa. ;)
