She was born June 1, 1931 to Jess and Lexie Wells in China Spring, Texas. Ollie graduated from Crawford High School and always felt at home in that community. Never one to sit still for long, Ollie was the happiest when she was on the go, whether it was just around the corner or on a road trip.

She is survived by daughters, Judy Kay Pavelka, Linda Hail and husband, Mike, Marion Sorrentino and husband, Tony; son, Chuck Wales and Mary Ann; grandchildren, Amy, Kevin, Jennifer, and Bryan; great-grandchildren, Camryn and Reece; as well as many nieces, nephews, cousins, and dear friends; and her beloved pet, Buddy.

Special thanks to Providence Hospice caregivers, Dee, Christina, and Kathy, and to Pat Moran, Linda Hail, Barbara Peterson, and Donna Moore whose help made it possible for Judy to keep her mom at home.
