Pastor David P. Olcott
Angelica/Marietta
Pastor David P. Olcott, 89, of 40 Horner Road, went home to be with his Lord on Tuesday (February 7, 2017) at the Wellsville Manor.
Born in Syracuse, February 26, 1927, he was the son of Eugene Cecil Olcott II and Hazel Mae (Samson) Olcott. Just after graduation he served in World War II, where he received the World War II Victory Medal. After his discharge from the Army, he married the love of his life Bernice J. Krakau Olcott, whom he married on October 15, 1949. David went to Bible School in Westfield, Indiana and was in the ministry from 1956-2011. He and his wife served in several different churches, retiring from Rose Hill Baptist Church, which was his first and last church. He was in the ministry for over 50 years. David enjoyed gardening, flowers, and later in life watching birds. Pastor Olcott will be fondly remembered for his quick wit, sense of humor, and a sparkle in his eye that could light up a room.
He was predeceased by his parents, 2 brothers and 4 sisters, and a granddaughter Nicole Lynn LaDue.
He is survived by his wife Bernice J. Olcott of Angelica, 2 sons Stephen D. (Michelle) Olcott of Blair, WI, Nathan (Lori) Olcott of Angelica, 2 daughters Bonnie (Terry) LaDue of Lee, FL, Miriam (Thomas) Proefrock of Ft. Lauderdale, FL, a brother Carus (Mary) Olcott of Myrtle Beach, SC, 9 grandchildren, and several great grandchildren, as well as nieces, and nephews.
