Olga Marie Russell Reynosa

March 7, 1972 – Oct. 23, 2025

Beloved Olga Reynosa, also known as Olga Russell, passed away peacefully on Thursday, Oct. 23, 2025, at Spirit Mountain Hospice Home in Cody.

Olga was born on March 7, 1972, in Powell to Ramona R. Frias and William John Russell. She was the second oldest of four children and brought laughter and light to her family from the very beginning.

Olga graduated from Greybull High School, where she spent four joyful years as a cheerleader — always full of energy, smiles and school spirit.

After graduating, Olga ventured to Minnesota, where she met Victor Jose Reynosa. They married in 1990 and had two beautiful daughters, Catalina Belen Reynosa and Moriagh Irene Reynosa.

Throughout her life, Olga worked in many roles that reflected her giving spirit from helping children at the migrant schools in Sidney, Montana, and Greybull to serving others with warmth and kindness at the Hamilton Restaurant, Lisa’s Restaurant and the VFW in Powell. No matter where she worked, she brought joy, humor and a friendly smile that made everyone feel welcome.

For the past decade, Olga shared her life with her beloved partner, David States.

Olga adored her five grandchildren, Nevaeh LeeAnn Reynosa, BellaBlue Patina, Gabriel Angel Patina, Isaiah Lyric Patina and RomeoSaint Andres Reynosa, who brought her immense joy.

She had a special love for animals, often referring to them as her four-legged babies. If there was a Mexican dance, you could count on Olga being there. She rarely missed one. She also loved makeup, purses, jewelry, perfumes and all things stylish. Olga enjoyed Asian aesthetics and was a devoted Denver Broncos fan.

Olga had a gift for connection. She made friends everywhere she went. She truly was a social butterfly. In her own words, she “had flow.” Her laughter was contagious, her nicknames unforgettable and her heart was always open. She loved to give, whether it was a gift, a hug or kind words. She found happiness in making others smile.

Olga is survived by her daughters, Catalina B. Reynosa and Moriagh I. Reynosa; grandchildren Nevaeh L. Reynosa, BellaBlue Patina, Gabriel A. Patina, Isaiah L. Patina and RomeoSaint A. Reynosa; mother Ramona R. Frias; stepfather Ramon V. Frias; brothers Angelo Russell and Oscar Frias; sister Blanca (Manuel) Garcia; nieces and nephews Daniel Ortiz, Selinda Russell, Angelo Russell Jr., Roman Wilkerson, Miciah O’Conner, Elena Garcia, Erminia Garcia, Anthony Garcia, Oscar Garcia, Evalina Garcia and Junior Garcia; her significant other, David States; and numerous cousins and relatives.

Olga’s bright spirit, laughter and love will live on always and forever in the hearts of all who knew her.
