On December 7th Martha Olvera passed away peacefully

entering the gates of Heaven. She was surrounded by her

family and closest friends.

Martha lived a full and amazing life. Even in her tough

times she pushed through and that made her a stronger

woman. She lost her only sister in a tragic accident. Then

her mother to unexpected health complications. Her heart

is full of love now as she reunited with them and the Lord

Jesus Christ.

moved to Colton California where she was raised and made

all kinds of memories with family and friends. She was a

proud yellow jacket that graduated from Colton High.

She did battle Lymphoma Cancer and gave it the fight of

her life. She challenged the Cancer with all kinds of

treatments but never gave up. She beat the Cancer and this

gave her an appreciation for life. She then devoted all her

time to her family and friends. She did work at bank for at

least 20 years. She retired and became a full time

homemaker. Later she would volunteered at Loma Linda

Hospital.

She did met the Love of her Life Frank Olvera at an early

age and thought he was the cutest. They were married for

48 years and had two children Erlinda and Frank. Through

good and bad times she was full of life. She was one of a

kind. She had a special personality that spread like a wild

fire to her family and friends. Every person has a great

story to tell about Martha.

In her later years she moved to the Four Seasons in

Beaumont California. She LOVED her home. She was

amazed with all the things she could do in this little

community. Once again she touched more people with her

love for life. Her favorite activity was ceramics. She loved

to paint her little figures. She never wanted to miss a class.

Martha always loved to her music, especially her oldies.

Shopping was her passion. She would tell everyone if you

like something buy two if you can (Opra said). She looked

forward every year to go to her time share in New Port

with her family. Her cleaning had to be her way. She

claimed she loved having her clothes ironed and having a a

clean bathroom and kitchen. She loved watching the

Temptations movie, Remember the Titans, Tombstone, and

Mi family. Her TV stations were lifetime and ID. Lastly she

loved her ice tea with LOTS of ice.
