My good friend lost her son on Wednesday...he was 32 years old. We never think that it is the last time we will see our child, our brother, our friend...sometimes it is. It has been a great reminder that we do not know our time here at school and each of us has a different assignment.



Justin Hayes Olsen left this world to the next in his sleep February 6, 2008. He was born December 19, 1975. He lived most of his life in Utah County, principally Spanish Fork. Hayes felt poorly the night before and went to bed early. No one had a clue of anything seriously wrong.
Hayes truly loved his family. He was very patient with his kids, showing them maximum love in a kindly way even when disciplining them. Hayes loved to give his wife and kids presents. He lived for the moment and enjoyed life fully without worrying too much about the future. He always had a ready engaging smile and a big bear hug for everyone. Hayes was friendly to a fault. He would loan or give away anything he had to anyone who expressed a need. Hayes really loved people. We wish he would just wake up and let us finish our association with him. He was only 32 years old.
He is survived by his wife Sandra Sophia Irvine Olsen and his three children, Gage, Skylinn, and Anson; and by his parents, Clark and Marti Olsen, and five siblings, Tyler Olsen, Cheyenne Nilsson, Alden Olsen, Lance Olsen, and C.J. Olsen. In lieu of flowers, please make any contribution to the special children’s account set up at Mountain America Credit Union in behalf of the Olsen children..
Funeral services will be held on Monday, February 11, 2008 at 11:00 a.m. in the LDS Chapel located at 4th North and 5th West in Spanish Fork, Utah. Family and friends may call on Sunday evening, February 10, 2008 at Walker Mortuary, 187 South Main Street, from 6:00-8:00 p.m. or on Monday morning from 9:45-10:45 a.m. at the church prior to services. Interment will be at the Spanish Fork City Cemetery
