Help Us Honor the Life of Olivia Alvarez

It is with broken hearts that we share the tragic news of Olivia Alvarez's passing on December 8, 2024. Olivia was taken from us far too soon, leaving behind a family who loved her deeply and a fiancé who was eagerly anticipating the future they were building together.

Olivia was a shining light in the lives of all who knew her. She was positive, thoughtful, generous, and kind — always willing to lend a helping hand and bring joy to those around her. She had a beautiful spirit, and her smile was infectious. Olivia had so much to look forward to; she was engaged and excitedly planning her wedding to the love of her life, AJ Witten, and dreaming of the family they were soon going to start together. She was planning to say yes to the dress on 12/14/2024.

In the wake of this unimaginable loss, Olivia’s family — her father, Juan Alvarez; her mother, Julie Smith; her sister, Celine Alvarez; and her fiancé, AJ Witten — are left grappling with the emotional devastation of losing their beloved Olivia, as well as the financial burden that follows.

We are reaching out to our friends, family, and community for support during this incredibly difficult time. The funds raised will go directly to covering funeral expenses, helping to relieve some of the financial pressure on Olivia’s family and fiancé as they navigate this heartbreaking tragedy. Any amount you can contribute will make a difference, and your kindness will be greatly appreciated by all who loved Olivia.

Thank you for your support, your prayers, and your generosity. Olivia’s legacy will live on in the hearts of all who had the privilege of knowing her.

Rest in peace, Olivia. You will forever be loved and missed.
