Born to Mercina Chagros on 02-25-1927 in West Seattle. Olga graduated high school in 1945. She met a USS Washington sailor from St Augustine Florida and they married July 21, 1945. During the next 32 years they lived all over the United States, Hawaii, and Japan. They had 5 children: Jeffrey (Libbie), Roni "Marsha", Gregory (deceased), Leslie (Hal), and Tim. Olga passed away peacefully in West Seattle on 12-03-2019 less than 5 miles from where she was born. But, what a ride in between.
Our mother was preceded in death by her husband Ray, infant son Gregory, grandson Kevin, elder sister Helen Steele and younger brother Demetrius 'Jim' Katiskapes. She is survived by her children, sister Mary Rutter of Marrowstone Island and numerous grand and greatgrand children.
Her quick wit, ready smile, and easy friendliness will be missed by all who knew. S'agapame mama.
