Obituary

Marilyn Olp, age 84, of Green Bay died Wednesday morning, March 24, 2021. She was born in 1936 to the late Ranetta (Specht) and J. Clifford Williston and lived in Green Bay most of her life. She was a 1954 graduate of Green Bay West High School. Marilyn married Harry Olp in 1962 as the first wedding of the charter Pilgrim Lutheran Church. She was proud to have been a charter member of that church where she and Harry have been lifelong members. Over the year, she volunteered in various church and school activities. Together, Harry and Marilyn raised five children. She was employed for over 25 years as a secretary in medical business offices. Then she went on to use her creative abilities while owning a gift basket shop, For All Reasons Baskets & Gifts. After her retirement, she enjoyed attending family activities, investigating Door County with Harry while at the cottage, and making jewelry, mainly for the school's auctions. Her loving husband, Harry, survives Marilyn. Together they celebrated 58 years of God's blessings on June 2, 2020. Her five children further survive her: Pamela (Erik) Moraga, Fort Worth, Tx; Daniel (Sheila) Olp, Ledgeview, WI; Carla (Arnold) McGee, Green Bay, WI; Paul (Beth) Olp, Pulaski, WI; and Timothy (Ann) Olp, Wauwatosa, WI. Surviving also are 16 grandchildren, 12 great-grandchildren and one great-great grandchild, sister-in-law, Roberta Williston, nieces, and nephews. Her parents, Ranetta and J. Clifford Williston preceded her in death as well as a brother, Norman Williston; sister, Judith Walling; sister-in-law, Verona Krueger; and brothers-in-law, Donald Krueger, and Joseph Walling.
