Mrs. Oliver was born on January 15, 1932, to the late Hogan Faye Forth and Lulu Davis Forth. She loved her family dearly. She had lunch prepared every Sunday at her home for family. Her favorite holiday was Christmas and she made sure that everyone always had a gift to open at Christmas regardless of the number. Everyone knew that she had a standing hair appointment every Thursday between 9:00 and 11:00 AM and that she watched Wheel of Fortune every night and you better not call during those times.
She is preceded in death by her husband, Zip Oliver; children, Michael Oliver and Carolyn Pardue; and siblings, John Forth, Jimmy Forth, Rosemary Jones, Ann Peters, and Maxine Hayes.
Mrs. Oliver is survived by her children, Lynn Martz, Cecil Oliver (Sandy), Donald Oliver (Beverly), Kathy Oliver, and Marian Thistlethwaite (Bob); sister, Elsie Lee Doubenmier; 11 grandchildren and 8 great-grandchildren.
