Denny & Lanny Olson worked together at NSP. only a year apart in age & living within 8 miles of each other they naturally grew to be good friends. We have a home as did Denny in Mission, Tex. But both of us started out at the campgrounds next to,at that time, Meadow view golf course & later buying a home down there on the golf course. I can only think of one typical Denny episode & that was when a bunch of Nsp guys got together to help Denny put new roofing on his house. I heard that he forgot where he was and walked right off the roof. Fortunately he wasn’t hurt. But of course he never lived it down 😄 Lanny has passed also. Miss them both. With Sympathy, Marlys Olson .
I only worked with Denny a few years, but those memory’s will last a life time!!
Denny was our friend for 60 years. Denny and Bruce carpooled together to work at NSP. They fished, snowmobiled, hunted together, and we all spent time together in Texas with Denny and Colleen. Colleen and Denny were a great couple friend, we are thankful that Colleen came into Denny’s life when she did.
Colleen wanted a cat and Denny did not think he liked cats. That cat and Denny became fast friends. It was not unusual to see the cat wrapped around his neck, he liked that cat.
There are so many great memories, too many to mention or even remember. We are sorry for the loss of your father, grandfather, and friend.
Bruce and Betsy Ebner
Chris, Stephanie and family – Thinking of you and wishing you peace and comfort.
Denny was good and kind to both of my parents when they needed a friend most. I will be forever grateful for your love and support during their times of need. Thank you.
Love and light to you and yours, Toni Quinn
