Lois Olson

Lois Olson passed away peacefully at her home in Buckley with her family beside her on December 11, 2018.  She was 90 years old.  Born in Aberdeen, Washington on November 3, 1928 to James and Edna (Drake) Robertson, Lois was raised in Aberdeen, Washington and graduated from Weatherwax High School. Lois later moved to Enumclaw with high school sweetheart, Ron Olson, to raise their family.  She was a teaching assistant in Enumclaw and a caring homemaker, calling the plateau area home for 64 years. Like a true local she loved the Mariners and was a charter Seahawks ticket holder. Lois was an active member of Calvary Presbyterian Church, a Children’s Orthopedic Guild Member, a master gardener, a member of the local quilter’s association, and a friend to all in her bridge, bunco, and canasta groups.

Lois is joined in Heaven with her husband Ron Olson, her son Ken Olson; and her brothers, Donald and James Robertson.  Those who continue loving Lois are her sons, Jim (Lana) Olson of Hoquiam, WA and Jon (Bari) Olson of Buckley, WA, four beautiful grandchildren, nine treasured great-grandchildren ( who knew her as Grandma Great), along with cousins, nephews, and nieces.

Remembrances for Lois, in lieu of flowers, may be made to the Buckley Firefighter’s Association, 611 S.
