Eunice E. Olson, 97, of Williston, ND, passed away Thursday, September 13, 2018 at the Bethel Lutheran Home in Williston, ND. Fulkerson Stevenson Funeral Home of Williston is assisting the family.
Eunice Estelle (Hayward) Olson was born November 22, 1920 to Murl H. and Marian (Hudson) Hayward. She was the 6th child in a family of 8 children. She attended the Haydraw School which was several miles away; so she and her siblings rode horseback to school.
Eunice married Oscar Olson December 4, 1938 in Sidney, MT. She helped her husband on the farm and sold Avon products to neighbors and friends for many years. She had a special place in her heart for chickens, had a big garden and lots of flowers. One of her favorite times was to find Crocus blooming in the early spring. She was an avid reader and loved doing crossword puzzles.
Eunice is survived by her 3 children, Muriel (Marlin) Overstreet of Billings, MT, Paulette Iverson of Billings, MT and Roland (Susan) Olson of Williston, ND; 10 grandchildren; 21 great grandchildren and one great-great grandson and her sister, Maxine Hayward of Williston, ND.
Eunice is preceded in death by her husband of 51 years, her parents; sisters, Ellen McRae, Blanche Rindahl, Alice McIntyre, Nellie Pierce and her brothers, Roland Hayward, Raymond “Gene” Hayward; son-in-law, Keith Iverson and a granddaughter, Jill Olson.
