He will be best remembered for his 20 years owning and operating the Cougar Inn Resort at Lake Wenatchee. Of all his businesses, Cougar Inn was the one he was the most passionate
about, the one that inspired the most vision, and the one he worked the hardest at. His time at Cougar Inn, his staff and his customers gave him great joy. That was the time in his life when he was having the most fun of all. Tom loved golf and especially his Thursday golf day at Leavenworth with his long time partner, Pete. He was awe struck with the breathtaking beauty, warmth and relaxation of the Wailea, Maui golf course, which was the place he loved the most on earth. He leaves behind his wife of 30 years, Dodee, and the person he treasured the most, daughter Nicole Olson of Mukilteo, his sons Darrell and wife Donna Moser of Cashmere, and Doug and wife Cari Moser of Lynnwood who worked and played right beside their dad at Cougar Inn. He also leaves behind his mother Marcie Olson, Mountlake Terrace, sisters: Beverly and husband Heinz Prast, Dallas, TX, Patricia Newton, Cashmere , Cindy Olson, Mill Creek, three grandchildren Cameron, Jordan and Raegan Moser. Tom was preceded in death by his father Bernie Olson, brothers Ricky, Bob, Larry and James (Buzz) Olson. Tom was a visionary when it came to business. He lived a life full of exciting business adventures. He was surrounded by a loving family who always took delight in the gatherings, good food, and spirited fun at Cougar Inn; the vacations in Maui, and the warmth, love and great times he showed everyone. Tom’s memorial service will be held Thursday Sept. 23, 1 p.m. at Evergreen Funeral Home, 4504 Broadway, Everett.
