Theodore Oliver—known to many as "Topper"—has sadly passed away, leaving behind a grieving family and a community in mourning. He is survived by his partner, Lonisha “Lahlah” Oliver, and their two children. Theodore was a devoted father, deeply committed to raising his son and daughter, who attend Sylvia Mendez Elementary and Longfellow Middle School.
The loss comes at an incredibly difficult time for the family, as they were already dealing with the trauma of being robbed at gunpoint while on a bus in East Oakland just the week before. This ordeal has made the family’s efforts to relocate to Berkeley even more urgent. Financial support is now crucial to help them through this challenging period.
Justin Randall, a family friend, has organized a fundraiser to assist Lonisha and her children. He emphasizes that all proceeds will go directly to Lonisha to support the family’s immediate needs. Lonisha herself has been a dedicated volunteer in the Sylvia Mendez community, and her work has benefited the broader Berkeley Unified community.
The Oliver family is now in need of financial assistance to help them navigate these difficult times. The community is encouraged to support the fundraiser, with any donations going a long way toward helping the family recover and move forward.
Our thoughts and prayers are with the Oliver family. May Theodore’s memory live on through the love and strength of his family and friends.
