Olga Deane, one of Sydney's most engaging people a decade ago, has died, aged 80. Olga was best known for her practice of sending mustard seeds, taped to cards, to showbusiness personalities and people facing troubled times. Her showbusiness scrapbooks are in the National Museum, Canberra. Olga was known as the Mustard Seed Lady. Her cards said: "If ye have faith as a grain of mustard seed, nothing shall be impossible unto you."
