She was born on October 24, 1964 to Felipe and Lamar (Rodriguez) Ramirez in Bakersfield, CA. She attended school at Lake View and Howard College. Olivia worked as an Ophthalmic Technician for Shannon Clinic. On November 23, 1996, she married Gabriel Guajardo of San Angelo. Olivia is survived by her loving spouse of seventeen years; Gabriel, two daughters, Monique Gonzalez and husband, Juan of San Angelo, Maricella Jacques of College Station; two sons, Jeremy Jacques and wife, Courtney, Joshua Guajardo and wife, Antoinette all of San Angelo; brother, Ismael Ramirez and wife, Anita of El Campo; two sisters, Tabitha Rivera and husband, Johnny and Geneva Lopez and husband, Domingo all of San Angelo; grandchildren are Luke, Kristen, Isabella, Noah, Bryce, Hezekiah and Alayna. Olivia was very passionate and strong in her faith. She loved spending quality time with her husband, children, and grandchildren, but always made time for anyone. She loved the ocean, especially at sunset and would go everyday if she could. "The Ranch" was always open for family gatherings, holidays or just to go relax. Olivia loved to bake and made everything her own creation. She strived for excellence in everything she did, no matter how big or how small. She loved and cared for all who came in her path, including every animal she rescued. But most of all, she loved God with all of her heart and lived everyday of her life to please Him, and it shows through her children and grandchildren. She has made an impact on many and her legacy will live on for generations. The family wishes to thank Gentiva Hospice, doctors, nurses and staff at Shannon, Baylor and M. D. Anderson for their skill and care shown to our family. We are grateful for all the support and prayers throughout this difficult time. We could not have made it without them. Olivia drew much strength from the love you gave her and us. Memorials are suggested to the Olivia's Support Fund at http://www.gofundme.com/eisos8
