My sweet Soul Sister, life will not be the same without your beautiful smile and laughter. I am grateful for the many memories on our motorcycle trips, Hobby Lobby sale shopping, concerts, and listening to Pete and the band play at La Fonda. To Pete and the boys, there are no words I can offer to lessen the pain. Oli was a gem and she loved you so very much. May you find peace in memories. Di

My heart is so broken right now, I am devastated. My sister was my best friend, we talked twice a day. She would call me on her way to work and then on her way home. Aside from being a workaholic, she also had to take care of everybody. She was the best best mother anybody could ask for. I’d say she spoke to both her sons at least, at least 10 times a day. And not to mention her love for Pete, her husband.
Olivia, I will miss you terribly, however I find comfort knowing that you are there with our parents and my son, Michael.
The memories I have of the good times we spent are imbedded in my heart. I will miss you calling me and asking me if I want to join you and Pete for breakfast or if I want to go to Sonic for a Coke float.
You touched so many and will be missed.
I love you

My heart goes out to all of you Pete, Her sons and family. Olivia was a dear friend and she will be greatly missed, the text messages, the going out to eat and reminiscing of our growing up together as we shared some good fun memories and had in common our love for our sons which i admired her for. I admired her for the strong woman she was and for becoming a successful business woman and owning her own company. The heavens have gained an angel. Rest in Peace my friend
