I was so very sorry to hear about Olivia's passing. I worked with Olivia at Ault Elementary. My prayers goes out to her family. I remember many things about Olivia, but the one thing that stands out is that she loved her family...Be encouraged to know that God has received an Angel on the morning she had taken her last breath.To be absent from the body is to be present with The Lord...

Olivia was like a ray of sunshine, always smiling with a funny story or joke to share. A fabulous cook, she often treated her Ault family to her wonderful sugared pecans (my favorite). Olivia's imprint has been left on many hearts - I will always remember her loving dedication to her many young students.
