Olive Roberts Forman

Olive earned her Bachelor’s Degree from H. Sophie Newcomb Memorial College before beginning her career as a teacher. However, her favorite thing was being a mom. She enjoyed reading and doing crossword puzzles in her free time. Olive loved spending time with her family, especially when there was good food and drinks involved. She also had a love for cats and dogs.

Olive is preceded in death by her loving husband of 53 years, William “Bill” Harper Forman, Jr. who passed away on April 26, 2021. She is also preceded in death by her parents; her sister, Susan Chadwick (Dr. Robert O’Neal); and her brother, Robert Roberts, III. Olive is survived by her son, William H. Forman, III (Jacqueline) and her two grandsons, Benjamin and Robert Forman.

The family would like to give a special thanks to Charmaine Earnest for her care and companionship for the past year. They would also like to thank Christ Church Cathedral Community for being a part of her family for many decades.

Relatives and friends are invited to attend a Memorial Service at 11:00AM on Saturday, April 9, 2022 at Christ Church Cathedral located at 2919 St. Charles Ave., New Orleans, LA 70115.

In lieu of flowers, please send contributions to the Heart and Stroke Foundation.
