It is with overwhelming grief that we confirm the loss of our beloved daughter, Olivia. No words can capture the depth of our sorrow or the pain we are experiencing as a family. Olivia was a light in our lives – full of kindness, laughter, dance, song and love – and her absence leaves a void that will never be filled and always remembered.

We know this grief is shared with others and we extend our deepest condolences to the other families that are grieving along side us in this tragic time.
We would like to take the opportunity to express our sincere gratitude to the first responders, police, and emergency services for all their efforts and communication.
We ask for privacy and space as we navigate this devastating time and begin to grieve together as a family. We are deeply moved by the outpouring of support from the community both locally and afar. We are grateful for the outpouring of support and love from all those who knew and loved Olivia as well as those who did not.
At this time, we kindly ask the media and others to respect our need for peace and refrain from further inquiries as we try to come to terms with our loss.
Thank you for your compassion and understanding,
The Rourke Family
