A 1979 booklet for Wesley United Church in Cambridge, Ontario (Galt), lists former organists and choir directors. In 1922 and '23 Miss Olive Colvin is shown as organist and later as both organist and choir director. The duration of her stay isn't mentioned.

A transcription of Section 4 of Mountview Cemetery was done in 1986. This shows a burial card for Mrs. Otto Schaus and she is evidently buried in her parents plot. This shows a date of 1 May, 1979. This could be either her date of death or her date of burial.
