We remember our beloved King, Oliver Lee Poindexter, a beautiful soul, and the family's cherished comedian. Born in Chicago, Illinois, on May 6, 1959, Oliver's life was a shining example of the joy and laughter he brought into the world.
Oliver's passions were as vibrant as his personality. An avid bike rider, karate enthusiast, and movie lover, he found joy in life's simple pleasures. Above all, Oliver cherished the moments spent with his family and friends, creating unforgettable memories and sharing endless laughs.
Oliver is deeply cherished and remembered by a family that held him dear, including his wife, Brenda, his sons, Oliver Jr., affectionately known as Little Oliver, and step-son David; his step-daughters, Katrina and Mary; his devoted siblings, sisters Barbara, Patricia (Michael), Genice (Eddie), Denise, Bernice (Clarence), and his eldest brother, Wade, known as Jr, his brother James known as Jamie and brother in-law Robert (Martha). His memory is also fondly held by a multitude of nieces and nephews, along with many more family members and friends.
Oliver's parents, Christine (mother) and (father) James; his uncle mark his sisters, Martha and Annette; his niece, Emelda; his step-son, Jeff; and his great-nephews, TyJuan and Keijuan, preceded him in transition.
Oliver Lee Poindexter's legacy of laughter, love, and the joy he found in every moment will forever inspire and comfort his family and friends. As we celebrate his life, we hold onto the cherished memories and the laughter he generously shared, ensuring his spirit lives on in each of us.
Oliver's spirit remains a guiding light for all who knew him.
From the family: "We love you so much, and you will truly be missed."
