Debra Olsen Obituary

Debbie Lee Olsen passed away, after a long battle with Dementia, on October 25, 2024. She was 70 years old.

Debbie was born in Whitecourt on August 13, 1954, to parents Gereldene and Jack Mortimer. They moved to Edson when Debbie was 6 years old, where she lived for the remainder of her life.

Debbie married Brad Olsen on April 26, 1974. They raised 2 children. Jared, born September 13, 1975, and Bryn, born August 15, 1984.

Debbie worked as a telephone operator (back in the day), clerical work for Pete Sherman accounting, Gunter Repair and Roblyn Bulk.

She is survived by husband Brad, sons Jared (Edmonton), Bryn (Edson), daughter-in-law Jessica (Edmonton), granddaughter Isla (Edmonton), brother Lynn Mortimer (Tisdale, Sask), as well as sisters-in-law Lynn Marie Mortimer (Tisdale), Beverly Darr (Kinuso), Donna Berube (Spruce Grove), Gwen Olsen (Edson), brothers-in-law Wade Olsen (Edson) and Barry Olsen (Edson).

She was predeceased by her parents Gereldene and Jack Mortimer.

Debbie requested that no Service be held, but she was a huge animal lover. So, in lieu of flowers, donations to the SPCA or Edson Animal Shelter would be greatly appreciated.
