I’m sorry for your loss 😢❤️✝️🙏 I don’t know what Olivia was like but I do believe her mother, Candice – To know Olivia, is to love Olivia. My prayers are with you all.
She was definitely a force to be reckoned with, and we all love her so much! I’m glad to have known her and know her family. All our love and prayers from the Pruitt family.
There’s no pain more terrible or deeper than that of losing a daughter. Her goodness & caring heart lives on like a legacy of love that will always be with you. I wish I could take the pain & sorrow from you, but for now I offer my hand to hold & my shoulder to lean upon. Those we love don’t go away, they walk beside us, everyday, unseen, unheard but always near & so loved. Treasure her memories as we all will do the same & support you & the family 💚🌺
I’m sending loving hugs and sympathy to the entire family. I’m blessed to have taught Olivia’s mother Candice. Candice was one of the sweetest kids I ever taught, and I hate that she has lost her youngest angel. Such a tragedy! May time and all of your precious memories bring joy and healing. God bless each of you! With love and much sorrow, Jennie Gault
I do understand the love for a motorcycle because I have the love for it also, it’s not that you playing Russian roulette or that you are got to thing for wanting to see how close to this you can get it’s not about that. It’s about when your hair is in the wind and your mind is heavy the wind takes all of that away it’s a freedom that unless you do it you can’t understand. My deepest condolences to you guys especially you as a mother, I pray the angels will be comforting from the days and months to come because it’s very when it’s going to hit hard. When all everybody is gone and you there we just her memories I pray that you Angels comfort you. You need to lean on each other and most of all you need to lean on God. And I know it’s hard not being mad if the whole world right now but not understanding why that your child was taken but the Lord will seen her up there! Her short time on Earth was done she fulfilled her assignment and now she lives up in heaven watches down over y’all. I will keep you in my thoughts and prayers even after this my deepest heartfelt condolences, I know this is a tragedy such a young Soul gone. But this young lady must have accomplished a lot in her few years on this Earth because her time was up for her to transition on up hope he gives us all some thought I hope it helps may God be with you God bless you..
