Olivia was a truly special gem and I will forever be grateful for the many wonderful times we had together.

I remember how welcoming and warm she was from the moment I first met her. Not being from the area she opened up her world and hanging out with Olivia was always such fun. Be it Magic Mike with the Gals, a cheeky night out at Maxwells or just chilling with a nice cup of tea.

At work she was the queen of organisation and even turned the L&D storeroom into the stuff of 5s dreams. So much so that the storeroom would be regularly featured in customer office tours.

I’ll miss hanging out with you and the girls, I’ll miss your amazing baking, I’ll miss your infectious smile and most of all I’ll miss your friendship.

I feel blessed to have had the pleasure of knowing you both at work and at home and you will forever be in my heart.

I really hope our girls can have the same friendship we’ve had.

My thoughts and prayers go out to all Olivia’s family, friends and colleagues at this incredibly difficult time.
