Mary Ana Louise Olive was born on December 22, 1994 and passed away on November 3, 2020.

Ana was born in Romania and came home to her family when she was adopted in December 1996.

Ana is survived by her father, Jim Olive, and her two sisters, Joy Olive Lyons and Sarah Olive.

She joins her mother, Sue Ruley Olive, and her sisters, Carey and Jennifer Olive.

Ana touched the lives of so many who knew and cared for her.

It is true that it takes a village and in Ana's 25 years of living in Rockbridge County, she had just that. Ana showed her love through the brightness of her smile, by remembering your name, forgiving your imperfections, and through an unwavering care for those who contributed to her life.

Ana had many hobbies over the years that not only expanded her community, but also brought her comfort and solace, including basketball, cheerleading, swimming, Girl Scouts, horseback riding, photography and creating art.

In Ana’s most recent years, she enjoyed collecting shells, fishing and watching birds and porpoises with her father at the beach.

Ana’'s heart and soul were filled with pure love and joy; her spirit will continue to light the world.

A celebration of Ana's life will be held in 2021 and will be announced at a later date.
