Chloe
Oliver
May 13, 1932 – July 18, 2024
Chloe Oliver passed away peacefully on July 18, 2024, at the age of 92. Born in Beach Haven, NJ to Edmund D. Oliver and Muriel (nee Howard). At Ursinus college, Chloe studied Phys Ed and met former spouse Gordon Tait. They had four children who they adored.
A longtime resident of Medford Lakes, NJ Chloe was outgoing and friendly to all. She taught Kindergarten for 39 years. Her strength was encouraging children to perform. She believed that every child wanted to be on stage but lacked the opportunity. She gave them the spotlight and encouraged singing along with her strumming the Ukelele, "Lovely Hula Hands", "She'll Be Comin' Round the Mountain", acting out Billy Goats Gruff, Three Little Pigs and many more plays. She said that her job was to make kids love school and her students loved her for it.
She carried that same spirit into family gatherings. Thanksgiving, Christmas and Mother's Day were filled with delicious food as well as talent shows, charades and silly games.
Chloe loved swimming at local Beach 4, daily afternoon naps, tap dance lessons, tennis and bridge. She played bridge with the same group of friends for over 45 years! She had a long running tennis game and passed her love of tennis onto her children and grandchildren.
She is predeceased in death by her parents, two sisters Marion Larson, Muriel Oliver and son Timothy Blaine Tait. She will be missed by her three children, Douglas Tait, Shelley Evans, Brenda Sanchez, 13 grandchildren and 19 great grandchildren.
