Olivia grew up in Alice, Texas and moved to Corpus Christi, Texas in 1957 where she met her beloved husband, Reynaldo Romero, at the age of 22. She was married to him for 26 beautiful years and blessed with five wonderful children.
Olivia worked as a caregiver in private home care. She had a tremendous passion for cooking, sewing, singing, dancing, and most of all, her family. She put her family and Jesus above all else, and would always shout “thank you Lord,” for any blessing, big or small, that came her way. She will be remembered for her beautiful smile, curls, and the need to have on earrings and red lipstick for any occasion.
Olivia was an amazing sister, wife, mother, grandmother, great grandmother, and friend. She was loved by all who knew her and was the life of the party. Family and friends would never hesitate to stop at her home to eat her delicious meals. She had a big heart that will continue to radiate through her memories and her family for the days to come. She will be dearly missed.
