He later became employed at Gulf State Canners located in Clinton, MS in April of 1993, where he was a devoted employer until his health began to decline. Soon after, he retired after serving dutifully for 20 years.
Oliver also known as "Head", was generous, humble, loving, and very openhearted. He was a taxi without a title. Oliver didn't meet a stranger, if you needed help, he was right there to extend a helping hand. He took great pleasure in helping within the community when it was time to vote by transporting elders and individuals that needed transportation to the polls. Oliver loved his family and found comfort in being on "Facetime" with his grandchildren. He had his own special way in expressing his love for his family. One of many was simply waking up early in the morning preparing breakfast while shouting through the house waking everyone up to come eat while the food was hot.
