(78) of Houston, TX passed away peacefully at home January 10, 2021 surrounded by her loved ones. She was born Olga Celeste Heizer on March 14, 1942, in El Paso, TX to Franklin Glenwood Heizer and Eva Perez Heizer. Her family moved from El Paso to Houston when Olga was four years old. She graduated from Bellaire High School in 1960 and was a member of the Bellaire Belles Drum Chor. She was married to Edward John Thompson from 1962 - 1972.

Olga is survived by her children: Stephen E Thompson, Lisa T Randolph (Cean), Rick G Thompson (Anna C Thompson); four grandchildren: Curtis Randolph, Alex Randolph, Ian Chesser and Gavin Chesser; and sister Gene Louise Walker (Brent, Blakely and Chuck). She is preceded in death by her father Franklin Glenwood Heizer (2001), her mother Eva Perez Heizer (1949), her sister Mary Louise Heizer (1989) and brother Glenwood Franklin Heizer (2011).

Her hobbies include gardening, cooking, antique shopping, birding, interior decorating, and collecting matchboxes from around the world. She loved traveling and would arrange to bring family together from far and wide to spend quality time together. Central to her character, she was openly generous with her time and affection.

A funeral service will be held at Rosewood Funeral Home in Humble, TX on March 12th at 3:00 PM (outdoor service, social distancing will be recognized). In lieu of flowers, the family requests donations be made to the ASPCA, Bruce Elementary school, or your local food bank. It is so hard to put into words how dearly and how deeply she was adored by her children. She was our guiding light and matriarch. Her bright smile, generous heart and gracious southern style will be missed by all.
