Ol, a lovely person and a good sister. I will miss our Tuesday conversations and our letters each week and our travels together and the thousands of nice things she did for me. I wrote a story about her and I cried. I would say to her now: "Thank you for being you, for saving my poems, for always remembering our special days, as well as those of many others. Thank you for sharing about your life and letting me share about mine. You are a part of me and all of us now. " Hugs, Halia Pushkar nee Dyryk_ - Posted by: Halia Pushkar (Sister) on: Dec 04, 2017

Olga was one of the ladies who originally trained me at the Free Press (1975), and I enjoyed working with her until her retirement. Olga was always a warm and generous person, and I'll always remember her fondly. RIP. - Posted by: Linda Ericsson (Coworker at the Free Press ) on: Nov 20, 2017
