She was born on September 17, 1932, in Havana, Cuba, to her Eastern European parents, Stefan and Franziska (Jandrisevitz) Bosko.

They shared a wonderful life together where they enjoyed traveling and socializing with their many friends in Ravenna.

Olga attended the Akron Beauty School to become a self-employed beautician, and became widely popular in the community for her talent. She was a dedicated home-maker, family caregiver and a great cook. She was also a devoted mother and grandmother, who cherished spending time with her daughter and her grandson. Olga appreciated the simple things in life, and loved her flower garden, feeding the birds and the deer that often visited her yard. She was a woman of tremendous faith and strength to her family. She was also a longtime member of Immaculate Conception Parish.
