Octavia born October 2, 1930, went peacefully to be with the Lord on February 21, 2014. Born in Naylor, Missouri to Andrew and Ida Richmond, Octavia was one of seven children.
She met the love of her life, Kenneth Owens, in Sanger, CA during the Dust Bowl era. They married, created a loving home for their ten children, and later enjoyed numerous grand-children and great-grandchildren.

She is survived by her loving children April Linn, Michael Owens, David Owens, Judy Baldwin, Elizabeth Fujinami, William Owens Jr., Gladys Martinez, Mark Owens, Greg Owens and their spouses along with numerous grand-children and great-grandchildren.
