Obituary of Olivia Grace Klatt

Olivia Grace Klatt passed away unexpectedly and much too young at the age of 27 at home on Thursday, December 3^rd, 2020.  She was born in Long Branch and lived in Brick, Freehold and Howell throughout her life.  Olivia was a graduate of Brick Township High School.

Olivia was a loving, free spirit who had the most beautiful smile that could light up your soul.  She had a passion for music from Eminem to the Grateful Dead.  Olivia loved animals, especially her rescue dog “Daisy”.  She enjoyed the simple beauty of flowers with her favorite being sunflowers and roses.  She had a huge heart and was fiercely loyal to friends and family and loved so many and was loved by so many more.

Most importantly, Olivia had a deep love for her family and took great pride in her Irish and Italian heritage.  She loved children and was a dedicated Aunt that treasured her niece and nephews, Tucker, Jane & Waylon.  Olivia enjoyed life to the fullest and she stayed true to herself.  When you think of her, celebrate the good memories you have of her.  Remember life is fragile and short and as Olivia would say it should be lived to the fullest and enjoy the ride.

Olivia is survived by her father, William “Dusty” Klatt of Howell and his fiancé, Kate McCue of Fair Haven; mother and step-father, Jan Marie and Brian Foster of Brick; the love of her life, her fiancé, Stephen Kelly of Howell; brothers, Abe Klatt and his wife, Leslie, of San Ramon, CA; Graham Klatt and his wife, Kathleen of Middletown; two nephews, Tucker and Waylon; a niece, Jane; and her beloved dog, Daisy.
