Violet J. Olson, 89, of Siren, Wisconsin, passed away peacefully in her sleep on Friday, May 3rd.

Vi is survived by her husband David (Pete) Olson, children Ed (Deb) Anderson, Cindy Anderson, Buck (Kathy) Anderson, Lori Jo (Mike) Kortus, Bob Olson; grandchildren David (Amanda) Schommer, Cory Schommer, Kaeley Anderson, Harley (Zoe) Jameson; great grandchildren Kody, Hunter, Allicia, Odin; brother Ed Christensen; nieces and nephews. Vi was preceded in death by her parents Harry and Mary Christensen, sister Mary Jane Ramstrom, great grandson Ronan Anderson Jameson.

Vi was born on March 15, 1935, at the family farm in Webster, Wisconsin. She graduated from Webster High School in 1952.

She had many different jobs, but her favorite was being a homemaker.

Vi was very artistic and loved doing arts and crafts, especially with her grandkids. Her favorite pastime was watching the birds and wildlife out her windows. She really enjoyed playing cards and beating Pete at cribbage. We’re unsure who won the most games, but Pete could be heard saying “Vi, you always get your cut.” so we tend to think Mom was the winner!! Vi and Pete spent many winters in Texas as Snow Birds where they made many great friendships.

She will be deeply missed by family and friends.

Private services will take place at a later date.
