Not sure what to say?

Thinking about A.J. on his birthday today and of Oliver. I loved them both dearly and have the happiest memories of both of them. Sending love to the family from and old friend and neighbor. , Sara from David Lane

Oliver,

I really did not know you...but knew someone close to you. I was just thinking about when you passed. Even though I did not kniw you.,. I felt thr pain of those close to you and it broke my heart. I know it has been awile sincr you passed....I wanted you to know (and I know you are in Heaven looking diwn on us)...you will never be forgotten.

I knew Oliver from his job at the bank. He made enough of an impression on me with his friendliness, humor, and just general sweetness that I realized I hadn't seen him recently, and asked about him today. I was shocked to hear the news. My sincerest condolences to his family. He always brightened my day even as such a casual acquaintance.

Bless all of you in your time of need. It was the honor of a lifetime to have been Oliver's friend. I miss him constantly, but I hold on to the memories he helped make that I will carry with me for the rest of my life. It's rare to encounter someone so good and decent as Oliver, and the world was made a better place because he was part of it. I am a better person because of his influence in my life. God bless all of you, and know that you are not alone.

My heart goes out to everyone whose life Oliver touched. He was a wonderful person.
I knew Oliver best when he was young and attended KCEE School but managed to keep up with him over the years. He was one of my favorite students; a talented and gifted person. He approached every day as a 'new adventure.'
Even as a young child Oliver demonstrated a compassion for others that was unique. It is difficult to think about Oliver without smiling... and although he will be missed, he will...

This just breaks my heart.. Oliver was just about my favorite person in the world and I really barely knew him! May his world renowned humor keep us going through our loss. He was a man of faith and I look forward to seeing "Big O" on the other side.. May God grant peace to the Wright and Clowers Families.. In this time of recovery of what was lost. Sincerely, Chris Kerr

Sharon,
I am so sorry to hear about Oliver. I didn't get a chance to meet him, but I could tell the joy he brought to you. I can't even begin to pretend that I know what your going through or how you feel, but I pray that the love from GOD, family and friends will comfort you in the days ahead. Sharon I pray that each day that goes by that you lean on GOD's shoulders.

Janet, please know you and your family are in my thoughts and prayers. Take good care.

May God bless you in this time of sorrow. Fond memories of a wonderful person, Oliver was a genuine giver.....
