** In Loving Memory of Ronnie **

Ronnie is loved, missed and remembered in our hearts forever. He is deeply missed

by his Family. Ronnie was a sweet, lovable, kind, cheerful, happy child. Ronnie's

Family initially lived in Wadena MN before Ronnie was born. Ronnie was

born in Becker Co. MN. He became ill just as his Family was moving from

Lake Park MN to the Twin Cities MN area. Ronnie and some other family members got

very ill with strep throat. Ronnie's condition developed into rheumatic

fever. Ronnie was initially hospitalized at a Detroit Lakes hospital then the U of M

Hospitals in Mpls. He got strep throat a second time during his illness when

he was out of the hospital. He received much medical attention, but passed away from

progressive medical complications. He was hospitalized at the University of MN Hospital in Mpls area a long time. Ronnie was in and out of the hospitals for approx.

15 months. His parents spent time with him daily at the hospital. Ronnie's

Doctors wrote Aless and Dena a letter about how brave and strong Ronnie was

throughout his serious illness. Ronnie's passing away as a young child was very

traumatic and heartbreaking for his family. Little Ronnie is remembered fondly

by his Siblings and other relatives. His Family Members cherish their memories

of him. Our Beloved Ronnie is buried next to his Parents Aless and Dena at Crystal Lake

Cemetery. Ronnie is survived by many relatives around MN, including the

Twin Cities area, Wadena and Norway.

Anton and Hannah Olson, last names were changed from Olsen

to Olson after their 1901 immigration from Norway to the USA.

Ronnie's Father Aless Olsen, born in MN, changed the

spelling of his last name to Olsen when he became an adult.

Many of our relatives names are Olson. Anton's stamp
