Octavie, affectionately known as “Tavie” by family and friends, was a sweet and generous person who enjoyed every minute of her life. Her spirit was always positive and her presence was felt by everyone around her. For over 20 years, she owned and operated Star Janitorial Services caring for many loyal customers along the way. In her spare time she enjoyed dancing and listening to her favorite swamp pop music, cooking and most of all family gatherings. She will be remembered for her sweet smile and generous heart. Rest well and enjoy your heavenly reward. Until we meet again.
