Jeanie Lisa Olin

Jeanie Lisa Olin, 65, of Longview, Washington, passed away on February 12, 2025. She was born on February 8, 1960, in Ava, Missouri, to Barton Rex and Julie Wyona Ruth Kilgore and was one of eight children. In 1988, Jeanie married the love of her life, Scott Olin, in Longview, Washington. She attended R.A. Long High School and worked as a bookkeeper for several local businesses. Alongside her husband, she faithfully served in a leadership role at New Hope City Church, where she touched many lives through her ministry. Jeanie was a woman of unwavering faith, boundless love, and deep compassion. She was a devoted wife, mother, grandmother, and friend who never turned away anyone in need. A source of encouragement to all, she lived as a reflection of God’s love—always ready with a kind word, a prayer of promise, and an open heart. She poured herself into raising her five children and creating a home filled with music, faith, and laughter. She found joy in singing, dancing, traveling to the ocean, and sharing karaoke nights with family and friends. Above all, she will be remembered for her resilient spirit, loving nature, and sense of humor. Jeanie is survived by her loving husband, Scott Olin, and her children: Ryane Olin (Nicole), Meghan Rasmussen (Matt), Bridget Ogden (Greg), Miles Olin (Marissa), and Hunter Olin. She was a cherished grandmother to seven grandchildren and a proud great-grandmother to four. Jeanie was preceded in death by her stepdaughters, Tricia and Shannon. As we say our final goodbyes, we take comfort in knowing she carries a piece of our hearts with her as she enters Heaven to spend eternity with her Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. Though words cannot express how deeply she will be missed, we hold onto the promise that we will see her again. A Celebration of Life will be held on Saturday, March 15, 2025, at 2:00 PM at New Hope City Church, 1416 Commerce Avenue, Longview, WA 98632. A live stream of the service will be available for those unable to attend. Friends and loved ones are invited to share memories and condolences on Steele Chapel’s website.
