Any and all donations collected will be used for the following...

 

 

 

 

 

 

None of these are mandatory and neither is your donation.

We just know that our loving "Silver Tack" (nicknamed for his intellectual brilliance) would have wanted everyone to be able to show their love and appreciation emotionally, spiritually, mentally, and physically however THEY felt most comfortable. Simply because he always provided room for others to help or support him if they so desired (even when he found it hard to ask for them to do so).

 

Thus, we thank you in advance for your kindness and support — and if you cannot donate, we thank you for your consideration and prayers just as well. We love you and HE loved you — nothing in the world will ever be able to circumvent that.

Robert (or "Mr. Oliver," or "Tack," as some of you may have known him or even further — "Papa," to those even closer to him, was one of the kindest, most accomodating, loyal, and serving souls to touch this Earth. If you got the chance to know him, much doesn't need to be said but a kiss and hug. If you never happened to be graced by his love though — review the following comedy special. It is him to the T.

 

Robert Oliver Jr. (son of Robert Oliver, Sr. and Mary Stevens-Oliver — born in Little Rock, Arkansas) was a Korean conflict war veteran and a proud supporter of these United States of America. Tack served as a church Usher and president of the Usher Board at New Covenant Church of Christ in Queens Village, NY — devoting every Sunday of his life to such positions without fail. Robert was a prolific bowler and comedic entertainer (by hobby ), an engineer and tinkerer by extended genius, but evermore, a community activist and humanitarian. In the latter years of his life, he became a financial officer and treasurer for multiple organizations and businesses throughout Southeast Queens and multiple South Carolina communities he worked within and/or volunteered with — working overtime to free communities from financial debts and emotional traumatic weights alongside his loving wife, Martha E. Oliver. Together, Martha & Robert helped shaped the community of St. Albans for their child, grandson, and countless other citizens — hoping to create new amounts of generational wealth and wisdom every day post-purchasing their first home within the St. Albans community in July of 1961.

"We loved you and will love you always.

94 Rotations. 72 years of marriage.

65 years of parenthood. 22 years of grand-parental guidance.

A loyal servant to his God and family.

A conqueror of soul searching and affirmations."
