Hello my name is Barry and in 2009 a woman approached me in the dillions parking lot in mcpherson kansas and gave me 20$ along with a card with Olivia's name and photo she did not say much just to pray and remember Olivia and I did. I still have that card hanging on my wall as a remembering of her and how precious life is and to cherish the time you have with your loved ones I have 5 children and that act on that day help change our lives and how we think of and view family it made us closer and a better loving family and we got that from Olivia and her card that day I wanted to thank you and your family for that day for it has changed our lives forever for the better because of this.thank you the ladwig family

Wish you were here to celebrate your 28th Birthday-wonder what you would be doing now, maybe a vet or a nurse in the midst of this CORONA virus. You continue to live in the hearts and minds of your parents, your friends and their friends. Peacefully watch over us now. With love & prayers to those with you and those still here.

Happy 27th Birthday my friend.

Think of you often, but this time of year I always think of you. You are missed daily and the world missed the opportunities of your kindness,
beauty and love of animals that you would have shared.  At Christmas
time we thank you for the gift of the time you gave us with you. Olivia,
please sing a song with the ANGELS for us. We will always tenderly hold
you in our hearts.       With love, Pamela Frey

Happy 25th my friend.

Happy Birthday my dear friend.

Hard to believe it's been eight years Olivia. I was surprised when I realized that much time has passed, it seems like it was only yesterday. I can't help but wonder where you would be at if you were still down here. I know you are in a happier place though, where you are free of pain and smiling. I miss that awesome smile.

olivia, not a day goes by that i haveent thought of you. you were my first friend at moundridge and ill nevere foreget your hospitality. you were a great friend and a daughter. i wish i coulde see you at least one more time to say how thankful i am to have met you and become so close in the short amount time we knew each other. youll be forever missed but never foregotten.

Again December 10 comes around although you are thought of and missed year round. So hard to believe it has been 6 years. So much life you have missed out on, and yet you are safe, secure, and free so we grieve with hope. I like envisioning an existence in which a person is free of fear, anxiety, unwanted thoughts, darkness, hopelessness. Free to fly. Blessings to Ron, Deb, Sarah this day and always, love and peace

Baby girl hard to believe you have been gone so long. So many of us wish to see you again soon. Love you miss you can't wait to hear all about heaven and what you have been doing these many years

So sorry and yet so glad that heaven is where you spent your 21st birthday. Probably was quite the party! I imagine what you would look like at 21 and see a beautiful woman. You are loved and missed.

A beautiful idea for a beautiful soul. I wish you were here, Olivia, to see the amazing colors of fall. We will not forget you.

Today I talked to other Olivia's at school. It makes me happy to say that name even though it is not you. I can't wait to see your beautiful smile again. Love you
