Robert Leslie Olson

West Point, 1987

Be Thou At Peace

Posted by Sean Herr on February 19, 2001:

I am in the Air Force and was a classmate of Rob's in Staff Group 4C last year at CGSC. I was deeply saddened when I heard about Rob's passing. Rob was a tremendous man with a true love for life and his family. Nothing made him happier or brought a smile to his face faster than when I asked him about Holly and the kids. In class, he always had a way of making the most of every situation and keeping eveything in perspective. He would go out of his way to make sure everyone was included and always made me feel like I was making a meaningful contribution to the class. Though I only knew Rob for a short time, he made an personal impact on me that will last a long time.
