Olivia Ann Deemer, 29, passed away February 6, 2025 in Virginia Beach, Va. She was born to James and Deborah Deemer January 5, 1996. She was a graduate of First Colonial/Bayside High School as well as Vo Tech in VB, where she studied cosmetology.
Olivia was Debate Captain three years in middle school and at the Legal Studies Academy in high school. (Boy, she could win whatever the debate topic, especially at home). Olivia’s interest in music began in elementary school when she was introduced to the violin and All City Orchestra. Olivia was very musically inclined and taught herself to play piano as well as guitar.
She loved softball, volleyball, and roller skating. After high school Olivia continued to try her hand in cosmetology at Rudy and Kelly but ended up in the food service business. Olivia was a great server and had many loyal customers at her favorite jobs, Roosters and Texas Roadhouse, as well as many other establishments. Olivia was very passionate about animals and especially cat/kitten rescue. At one point we had nine cats in our house that she got up every 3 hours to care for.
Olivia loved the beach and spent as much time as she could sunning, swimming, and sanding (as she called it). Olivia was extremely intelligent, witty, beautiful, and kindhearted (always helped the underdog). She loved with all her heart and soul. She began to blossom after she accepted the Lord and Jesus Christ as her savior, so we know she is at peace and in the best place ever.
OUR Lives will never be the same without you, Olivia Ann!
