A memorial service will be held on Monday October 13, 2014 at 1:00 PM at the Immanuel Methodist Church in Norwalk, with Pastor Theresa Amberson officiating.

Mabel was born February 19, 1924 in Norwalk, the daughter of William and Mabel Caroline (Dreps) Vieth. She graduated from Norwalk High School. Mabel married Theodore "Ted" Olson of Navarino, WI on June 21, 1944. Mabel moved to Chicago during World War II, where she worked at the Dairy Products Association.

She moved to Stevens Point in 2010.

Mabel enjoyed spending time and cooking for family and friends. She always added a lot of love to each menu item she prepared! Mabel loved to travel and also enjoyed fishing, gardening, and reading. She also enjoyed volunteering and giving to others.
