Daniel Todd Oliver

“

He had a way of talking to anyone and making people feel welcome, and he made countless friends throughout his life.

Daniel Todd Oliver, of Princeton, born May 22, 1970, passed away on September 20, 2026, at the age of 56.

Todd will be remembered as a hardworking, dependable man with a generous heart and a friendly spirit. He worked as a salesperson at NAPA for 19 years and also spent 18 years with Pizza Hut, where he served as manager for many of those years. Todd was never one to sit still. He was always working, taking on odd jobs, mowing lawns, or finding something that needed to be done. He took pride in staying busy and helping others whenever he could.

When he wasn’t working, Todd enjoyed spending time outdoors, especially fishing and hunting. He loved the simple things in life and the time spent doing what he enjoyed.

Todd never met a stranger. He had a way of talking to anyone and making people feel welcome, and he made countless friends throughout his life. He was well loved by those who knew him, and his friendly nature, willingness to help, and familiar smile will be deeply missed.

Todd’s giving spirit continues even after his passing through his decision to be a donor. In death, just as in life, he is helping others. His final act of generosity is a lasting reflection of the kind of person he was and serves as an encouragement to others to consider giving the gift of life.

He was preceded in death by his father, Orbie Oliver, and his mother, Samantha Oliver.

Todd is survived by his brothers, Randy Oliver (Devona) of Paducah, and Billy Oliver (Denise) of Cadiz, along with the many friends whose lives he touched throughout the years. His family and friends will carry with them countless memories of his hard work, generosity, laughter, and friendship.
