She transitioned from earth to eternity on August 27, 2023, at the Twin Rivers Health and Rehabilitation Center in Arkadelphia, Arkansas surrounded by her family and loved ones. She made a personal decision to accept Christ at an early age as her Savior. She was a 1980 graduate of Gurdon High School and attended Ouachita Technical College of Malvern, Arkansas where she studied Nutrition.   The Lord entrusted Olivia with the greatest task of all and that was to raise and nurture her children LaTasia Williams and Marcius Williams. She was a super and hardworking mother, loving sister, compassionate granny, proud aunt, and a true friend. She was very passionate about gathering with her family, especially during the holidays. During those times, the day wasn't complete until she made her many delicious cheesecakes for each household.   Olivia was preceded in death by her mother, Anna Williams; her father, Hiawatha Williams; grandmother, Johnnie Q.
