    We know over the years we have lost touch with our Oliver cousins. But we will always remember the gatherings at Thanksgiving and Christmas. I still remember when Jamie was just a toddler. Even with a leg brace, she went where she wanted to go, and did what she wanted to do. She certainly has always had some of the Oliver family determination and spunk. I am sure her husband has seen some of that strong will shine through their daughter. It is good for all of us to remember the good times and especially her smile, but it is even more important for all of us to remember her determination to keep going. We give our deepest sympathy to her husband, daughter, our cousin Jennifer, Uncle Doug & Aunt Terresa, and the rest of the family.

    I knew Jamie back during our high school days. I will never forget the time we shared together in chorus class. She truly had the voice of an angel. Such a wonderful and special person who will truly be missed. My heart aches for your loss. You all are in my thoughts and prayers.

    I had the honor of working with Jamie at Wells Fargo. She was, and will continue to be, a force to be reckoned with. She was an incredible leader, partner and gave selflessly from her heart. My sincere condolences to her family. She will be missed.
