Two years later, she became the main office secretary, a position she kept until 2000. She was a favorite with students from start to finish. Gretna’s 1975 yearbook was dedicated to her. “Her generosity and enthusiasm know no bounds, and just being near her makes us see the brighter side of life,” the dedication reads. “We see her giving of her time and energy again and again-at football games collecting tickets, playing volleyball, selling popcorn, and supervising students-and we wonder how she does it all.” “She spreads joy and happiness in all that she does, and her smile is ever-present, radiating sunshine.” Mrs. Oltarzewski was also active in her community. It made her feel good to do things for others. She was the kind of person who would much rather do for others than have something done for herself. She was a member of the PACE Club, where she was the top luminary salesperson. She was a former member of the Lions Club, served on the Gretna Town Council, served as Gretna Vice-Mayor, was vice president of the Gretna Merchants, Association and was a member of the Pittsylvania County Secretarial Association.
