Katharine Joan Olski Obituary
With heavy hearts, we announce the death of Katharine Joan Olski (West Monroe, Louisiana), who passed away on July 31, 2018 at the age of 87. Family and friends are welcome to leave their condolences on this memorial page and share them with the family.
She is survived by: her mother Laura; her siblings, Louie Jr., Pat Jr. and George Jr.; and her children, Susan, Michael, Mary, Peter, James, John and Lori.
She was the first woman on the Southern Door school board, serving six three-year terms and making even the most truculent Belgian farmer admit, "She weren't so bad, ainso?" In her later years, Alzheimer's began to diminish her symphony of notes but to the end it still rang out with strong chords of courage, patience and good humor.
