Olga was born in Vancouver, and raised in Kelowna, BC. She moved to Penny, BC in 1950 to teach school, and there she met the love of her life, Clarence Boudreau. They were married for over 70 years and remained in Penny until 2011 when a motor vehicle accident required them to live closer to medical care. They moved into their current home in North Nechako, and she often said that she would be happy if she could live long enough to experience all 4 seasons in the new home. It turned out to be 10 years, and she loved the home and all the new friends they made there.
Olga was predeceased by her parents, Olga and Jack Horn, her siblings John, Ina, and Jim, her daughter Diane Louise, son-in-law Peter Koppe, and granddaughter Thea Palmer.
She is survived by her beloved husband Clarence, children Dan (Britta), Larry (Donna), Maxine (Dave), and Jenny (Trevor), 19 grandchildren, 22 great-grandchildren, and 5 great-great-grandchildren who were her pride and joy. She will be forever remembered by her many nieces, nephews, extended family and special friends.
Her family would like to extend a heartfelt thank you to Milly Saville who sang to Mom in her final moments, all the nurses and care aides at hospice, Dr. Barend Grobbelaar, Dr. Syal, and Dr. Marko, and to all those who have supported her and made her life easier during the past few years.
An outdoor Celebration of Olga’s Life will be held on May 21st, 2022. Details to follow.
In lieu of flowers, memorial donations may be made to the Prince George Hospice Palliative Care Society or the Salvation Army in Prince George.
