Dennis and I met on FB last year sometime through a common friendship with theologian and author Mark Shea. We discovered we both worked at Lackland in San Antonio and we agreed to meet when I returned from TDY. This morning I learned of Olivia's passing and the families loss. Olivia and family, you have my deepest, heartfelt prayers. God has everything under control by His Sovereign rule. I'd bet my life on it. Good bye, sister. Bless you for your faithfulness.

Perhaps they are not the stars, but rather openings in Heaven where the love of our lost ones pours through and shines down upon us to let us know they are happy.
I saw this as we have lost a dear friend and wonderful woman but we will see each again soon. I am honored to have worked and met such a loving person as Olivia; you will never be forgotten.
Always Catina and Family.

Hi Dennis and Kids,
Olivia was such a beautiful woman inside and out. She had such an enter peace about her that glowed when you see her. I know how much she loved you and her children, but we never know why God does the things he do, but know that she and the baby is amongst angels sitting by the feet of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. May God Bless you and keep you through this hard time.

To the Dennis and kids;
Your mom was a great person; the loss of this gentle soul is felt by many, and I know the loss is hard. Feel comfort she is with her heavenly Father, and is in perfect contentment – knowing that she was raised into the light, and the light is good. We pray for Our Holy Queen of Peace to pray for her at the hour of her death, and that Our Holy Queen of Peace Prays for all who are now in pain, and mourning.
Blessed by our God; may Olivia rest in the peace of Heaven with her baby, and may you all feel the comfort of the community – as we all stand with you.
Your Brother in Christ,
Christopher McQuade
