Livia enjoyed camping, cooking, watching western and horror movies. She had a heart of gold and helping people was the first thing she thought of in the morning. Livia’s favorite time of the year was Christmas, because it was the same time as her birthday and that made it extra special for her. She gave love to anyone who walked through her door and needed a place to stay or a hot meal to eat - no one was ever a stranger to her.
She is survived by her loving daughters, Sheila Olivier Pauley and husband Clive of Breaux Bridge and Kristy Olivier of Catahoula; sons, Russell Rusty Olivier and wife Melissa of Catahoula and Randall "Salt" Olivier and wife Crystal of Cecilia; adopted son, Matthew Barnette and spouse Tammy of Loreauville; grandchildren, Hunter Olivier, Blake Olivier, Sadi Guidry and spouse Kevin Arceneaux, Jacy Dupre and spouse Layne, Alana Olivier, Re'jen Olivier, Te'dm Olivier, Rustyn Olivier, Caleb Perez, Brayden Melancon, Cade Melancon, Gannon Olivier, Tanner Olivier, Jenna Olivier, Macenly Boudreaux, Malee Devillier, Makail Olivier; great grandchildren, Alaijah Arceneaux, Aniya Dupre, Kayson Dupre, Micah Dupre, Avery Dupre, Malani Calais, Cadence Marceaux, Zylan Olivier; daughter-in-law, Wanda Theriot Olivier and companion, Shane Hollier of Catahoula; sisters, Irene Theriot, Clara Wiltz and husband Stanley, and Sidney Mae Louviere; and brothers, Clesma Albert and wife Laura, Wilbert Albert and wife Betty, Berton Albert and companion Judy, and Roland Albert and wife Jeanine.
