Olive and George were married on March 24, 1953, and shared an unwavering affection and love for each other, for over 64 years until George passed away, in 2017. They were blessed with four children: Winford "Lee", Michael, David and Tammy. Olive had several vocations, besides being a loving mother and wife. She worked at a Greeting Card Company, at a Cauliflower Packing Plant, and took great pride in being one of the best waitresses, with her friendly and bright service to her customers.
