Roberta “Bobbi” Lee Olliver, 66, passed on after a long courageous battle against cancer.
She is survived by her loving and devoted husband and best friend, Michael Olliver of Mt Laurel, NJ, her two daughters Jessica Zoll (Tony) of Delran, NJ and Emily Marder (Jesse) of Harleysville, PA and granddaughter, Lily Elizabeth Marder who she often referred to as “my happy”
Bobbi grew up in Verona, PA a suburb of Pittsburgh where she enjoyed time with her loving and carefree mom, Bette Sistek and her older brother Lenny Sistek. She moved to Levittown, PA with her brother in her early adulthood where she met her husband Mike, after responding to a newspaper ad requesting a singer for a band. Bobbi and Mike raised their two daughters in Levittown, PA until moving to Mount Laurel, NJ in 2016.
Bobbi enjoyed music, alpacas, crafting, knitting, shopping and being with her family and friends. Her sense of humor and wit were one of a kind and something she was known for, along with her huge heart and desire to help others.
Bobbi dedicated her life to helping others from her passion and career as a domestic violence counselor to working with children with autism. She always put her heart and soul into making a difference in peoples’ lives.
