Condolences
To Ollie's family and friends,
I worked with Ollie at Cohos, Evamy & Partners for five years and was fortunate to be her friend for fifty years. Ollie had exacting standards but never expected more from her staff than she, herself, was willing to do. The skills and standards I learned from her I carry with me to this day.
She also had a wicked sense of humour, loved books, the arts and debate. Conversations around the dinner table were never, ever boring especially since Ollie loved to stir the pot a little. An avid reader, Ollie was always ready for a good, healthy debate on any topic but especially politics.
For me Ollie was a role model. I admired her dignity, her fairness, her sharp intellect, her honesty and her strength. And she was a loyal friend.
Ollie, I am going to miss you but it's a comfort to know that you are at peace at last. You were valiant to the end.
Lorna and Kenneth, thank you both for taking such good care of Ollie. This is a very difficult time for you and your family and I'm sending you my heartfelt condolences.

To Ollie's family and friends,
I was a friend of Ollie for 5 months less than half a century. We discussed everything and anything. Over dinner. Over drinks. But what I remember most was when we had our discussions while hiking up and down the Canadian Rockies. Over the 5 months less than half a century we solved most of the world's problems and all of Canada's. My only regret is that we didn't tell anyone.
May you rest in peace, Ollie.
Love,
Alan

To the Family of Ollie
No words that I can think of will be suffice right now. I am thinking of your family and sending love and my deepest condolences. Ollie has always been there for me. I miss our telephone calls. When I worked with Ollie she taught me good work ethics and to be a team player. Ollie was a great leader she never expected more out of you than what she was willing to do. Ollie always talked about her nieces and nephews and that you were always there for her when she needed you. Ollie told me when she needed help with the computer that one of her nephew's would come over to help but you would just click so fast and had a hard time remembering what you did to fix the problem. May you rest in peace Ollie.
Love
Marna Dee
