Darla Fae Olson's Obituary
Funeral services for Darla Fae Olson, 79, of Fairview, will be at 1:30 p.m., January 31, 2018 at the Aline Methodist Church in Aline, Oklahoma with the Reverend Linda Grounds officiating. Burial will follow in the Aline Star cemetery. Arrangements by Fairview Funeral home Inc.
Darla Fae Olson was born December 4, 1938 to Thomas and Fae Wright and went to lead the heavenly choir January 28, 2018.
Darla was born in Oakwood, Oklahoma. The family moved to Oklahoma City, then on to Del City, Oklahoma, where she attended school. Halfway through her senior year, she moved back to Oakwood so she could graduate there. Darla loved returning to Del City yearly to attend the alumni banquet.
Darla met and married Don Olson in 1969. She moved from Oklahoma City to a dairy farm in Aline, Oklahoma! Her family of 3 instantly became a family of 8 and she loved every minute of being a farm wife and mom.
When Don retired in 2004, the couple moved to Fairview. Darla continued working for Jensen's Inc. where she had been their bookkeeper for many years.
Darla's son-in-law, Dennis Boyer, had a life changing motorcycle accident in 2006. Darla and Don moved in with their daughter, Cheri, where Darla spent the next 11 years being a loving caregiver to Dennis.
Darla was bigger than life. She loved her Savior more than anything. She loved her family, which included her church family. She played the organ and directed the choir at the Aline Methodist Church.
She is preceded in death by her husband Don, parents Thomas Wright and Fae Wright Henry, stepdaughter Debbie Bradford, son-in-law Dennis Boyer, sisters Lorraine Ivie, Betty Proffit and Cleta Hickman and brother Tom Wright.
Darla leaves behind her daughter, Cheri Boyer, sons Scott Olson and wife Kim, Wade Olson and wife Merlene, Gary Olson and wife Kim and Jace Olson and wife Donna. Grandchildren Whitney Mendez-Boyer, Wesley Olson, Shannon McDowell, Derek Olson, Landon Olson, Dane Olson, Ian Olson, Bradley Olson, Seth Olson, Ethan Olson, Megan Blalock and Lindsey Olson. Great grandchildren and nieces Wanda McNish, Charolette Baranski and sister-in-law Rubena Wright.
Memorials may be made to the Aline Methodist Church with the funeral home acting as custodian of the funds.
If there was a picture of "selfless" in the dictionary, Darla's picture surely would be there!
