Olga Dubiel of Yorkton, recently of Regina, entered eternal rest on December 28, 2022 at the Regina Pasqua Hospital surrounded by her family. She was 86 years of age.
Olga was born to Metro and Margaret Sass on July 18, 1936 near Hubbard, but grew up at the family farm near Fenwood with her fourteen brothers and sisters. She helped with all chores on the farm, mostly the ones outdoors, but also loved to help with the baking and cooking. This provided the foundation to her long career of cooking amazing food for friends, family, and customers alike. Despite her busy farm life, she excelled at Maxwelton School which she attended until grade eight. Throughout her teenage years, Olga was very independent and enjoyed working to make her own money. She held many different jobs around Yorkton, Fenwood, and even lived in Edmonton for three months.
She married Raymond Dubiel on July 1, 1961 at St. Mary’s Church, and they began their life together in Yorkton. Through the years they raised four children: Karen, Brenda, Tim and Theresa. Olga worked all of her life except when she had the kids at home, though people were always coming to her door to buy bags of perogies and cabbage rolls.
Above all, Olga was very social. She loved going out with her brothers and sisters to all the barn dances. She could chat for hours with friends and family, and was always laughing and joking. She was witty and sharp until the very end. She made friends everywhere she went and was known by many in the community, especially from her many years working at the golf course and curling rink. For over thirty years, Olga was also actively involved with the UCWL in Yorkton and helped host many events at St. Mary’s Hall. In 2015 she moved to Selo Gardens Senior Residence in Regina where she also made many good friends.
Olga was predeceased by her husband, Raymond; her parents Metro and Margaret; her in-laws Mike and Mary Dubiel; her sisters Sophie Pacholko and Annie Novakowski; her brothers Walter, Peter, Mike, Nicky, Steve, Frank, and Billy; her brothers-in-law Steve Benko, Pete Pacholko, Nick Benko, John Lazurko, Lorne Karapita, Fred Zwirsky and Laddie Novakowski; and her sisters-in-law Rose Sass, Liz Sass,Katie Sass, Mildred Nagy, Darlene Dubiel, and Ilene Repka.
Olga will be lovingly remembered by her daughters Karen (Terry), Brenda (Russ), and Theresa (Mark) and her son Tim (Nicole); her grandchildren Melanie (Keith), Courtney (Kodi), Amanda, Jayke, Bryce, Maddison, and Zackery; her sisters Eleanor Benko, Mary Lazurko (Doug), Rose Benko, Jeanette Karapita, and Angie Zwirsky; her sisters-in-law Joan Sass, Karen Sass, and Mary Sass; her brothers-in-law Alvin Dubiel and Clarence Repka; and many nieces, nephews, and friends.
