Oliviah Grace-Lee Brown-Hall
September 28, 2008 ~ December 29, 2018
Oliviah Grace-Lee Brown-Hall peacefully went home to our Lord surrounded by her loving family on Saturday, December 29, 2018 at only ten years old.
Oliviah battled an aggressive form of brain cancer, Glioblastoma Multiforme Grade IV, for 16 months. Oliviah demonstrated great strength and bravery during every moment of her journey. She endured multiple surgeries, chemotherapy and more than 50 radiation treatments and Gamma Knife Radiation. She was treated at three different hospitals. Oliviah stole the hearts of everyone she met, whether it was fellow patients or complete strangers she encountered in everyday life.
Oliviah is the daughter of Bryan Brown of Ashtabula and Miriah Hall of Brunswick, She is preceded in death by her beloved Great-Grandmother, Arvina E. Anthony and Brenda L. Osborne. She is survived by her parents; her brothers, Bryan Jr. and Keegan; sister, Kyleigh; paternal grandmother, Patricia M. Brown and maternal grandmother, Lisa Rosario-Nelson; and numerous aunts, uncles and cousins who love her dearly.
Oliviah spent her life laughing and joking with her cousins, who were her best friends. Her infectious personality reached beyond family and she never missed an opportunity for strangers to become her new friends. She loved life, laughter, God, and people. Oliviah attended Jefferson Nazarene Church regularly with her Grandma B. Oliviah lived more in her ten years than most do in a lifetime. She became an FBI agent in Cleveland. She met her partner, John Breen, and had the opportunity to meet FBI Director, Christopher Wray, in Washington D.C. Oliviah trained at Quantico and had the largest attended graduation ceremony. She loved her country, law enforcement and the military. Oliviah became a rockstar with the band, Country Redford. She became a Fox 8 news reporter. In the last months, she reveled in the success of the Cleveland Browns wins. She walked the runway with the Cleveland Cavaliers, and dropped the puck for the Cleveland Monsters. She was Cleveland sports #1 fan. Oliviah met the President of the United States, Donald Trump, and his lovely daughter, Ivanka. Oliviah wanted to make the world a better place and she wanted to make other people smile. She raised funds and donations for organizations to help raise awareness for Childhood Cancer and to find a cure for GBM. This became a source of strength for Oliviah in her last months. If Oliviah were here now, she’d smirk, point her finger, and ask, “How you doin?” Oliviah gifted us all with her smile, her love and her laugh.
Friends and family will be received from 3:00 to 7:00pm on Sunday, January 6, 2019 at Cornerstone Friends Church 2300 Hubbard Road in Madison. Funeral Service will take place at 11:00 am on Monday, January 7, 2019 at the church.
A blood drive in honor of Oliviah is scheduled for Fri, January 11, 2018 at Ashtabula Towne Square.
In Lieu of flowers donations may be made to the Team Oliviah Foundation, 5607 Clover Circle, Willoughby, OH 44094. The Behm Family Funeral Home is assisting the family during this time. Online obituary and condolences may be viewed at www.behmfuneral.com

I was taken by this little girl the first time we met on August 18th 2018. I filled in on drums for Country Redford and that was my first show in six years. There is a reason that was my first show… to meet Oliviah. I’m very fortunate to have met this young lady and will forever cherish those memories and the times we spent together.
It was an honor to meet Oliviah. I will always remember her beautiful smile and incredibly inspiring spirit! Rest easy Special Agent Oliviah.
My heart, condolences, thoughts and prayers go out to all of Oliviah’s family during this difficult time. I am the individual responsible for organizing the Christmas greeting video package Oliviah received on Christmas Day. It was an immense honour to do something so special for this very special and outgoing little girl. I cannot express how saddened I was to hear of Oliviah’s passing. She is now and forever will be an angel among us.

Sweetest Oliviah, What I thought was going to be a typical Monday morning at the office, turned out to be anything but. As I opened the email requesting that I assist in facilitating a visit for a young girl with cancer who had dreams of becoming an FBI Special Agent, I tried to muffle my tears as I watched the attached video clip. Not once, not twice, but several times over. In that moment, you stole my heart. I loved you before ever having met you…..I loved you even more after having done so …. I will love you evermore until we meet again….And we will meet again. I am firm believer that nothing in this life is accidental. Our paths simply do not cross by happenstance. But rather God our Father, through His Son Jesus, helps us to connect the dots, especially during the difficult times in our lives. I, like many others, prayed for the Miracle Maker to show His glory by healing you and restoring everything that had been taken. When I received the news in church that you had passed…….everything within me wanted to scream! “God. No! Why her? Did you not hear all of those prayer requests going up to Heaven? I don’t understand Lord, I don’t understand……….” After many tears I have come to accept that sometimes the answer, which is beyond our earthly understanding, is quite simply “No”. True to His unending mercy, goodness and abounding grace, He has given me just a glimpse of how our dots connect. My mother, “Grammy B”, whom I sure you have met by now, loved to sing and dance. I miss her every single day. Seeing as you loved to dance too, perhaps you could show her how to do the Macarena? That would bring a smile back to my face. Until we meet again, I will envision you with flowers in your hair, smiling and twirling around without a care in the world…. as all little girls do. Lovingly, Lori, Your sister in Christ Jesus
To her grieving family…let the memories of your sweet girl comfort you in your loss. Olivia, you can now fly with the angels.
So sorry for your loss. I never meet her but watched her on Fox 8 when she was on there. My niece goes to North Elementary in Madison and her 3rd grade class all made Oliviah a christmas card. I heard the announcement on fox 8 and told her about it and with a lump in her throat is when she told me about the cards.
From Canada,hearts are left broken on this earth because those who loved you have lost you,but The angels rejoice,and lift you to the heavens sweet child,and Jesus awaits you with all his love,and you in your heavenly body will watch over your loved ones from Jesus’s arms,knowing one day you will be together again.RIP sweet child.
R.I.P. Oliviah. It was a true pleasure to meet you. I will never forget your laugh. Fly high beautiful girl.
I remember when she came to my house selling #team oliviah sighns
