Alivia Watson Obituary

Alivia Ann "Livi" Watson SUMMERVILLE - Alivia Ann "Livi" Watson, 9 years old, earned her angelic wings on Sunday March 26, 2017 in her home state of South Carolina. Alivia was born on May 19, 2007 in Youngstown, Ohio, daughter of Jolie (Scanlon) Tatar and Michael Watson. Alivia was a 4th grade student at Newington Elementary, Summerville, South Carolina. Alivia was a great student who looked forward to attending school each day and always wanting to surprise her teachers and friends with homemade treats and gifts. One of the things Alivia loved most was animals...any and every kind. From dogs to turtles to hamsters and everything in between, she gave them a home and she would always beg for "a new pet". Livi also loved being outdoors and playing with her siblings and friends; she loved bike riding, swimming and "hunting for shark teeth" with her brother Jacob. If she wasn't outside playing, Alivia could be found in her kitchen cooking and baking for family and friends. Even though she was only 9 years old, Alivia had an old soul. She displayed the most genuine, loving and giving qualities...always making sure everyone else was taken care of. From making homemade treats for school to making dinner for her family, she was always doing for others. Her beautiful infectious smile and loving personality warmed the hearts of everyone she met. Alivia was preceded in death by her grandfather, John Scanlon and her beloved dog Macy. Alivia was blessed with the love of 2 families...2 men who she lovingly called Dad, who both proudly called her their daughter. And brothers and sisters who she shared a bond with that was stronger than blood...a bond of love. She is survived by her mother Jolie (Scanlon) Tatar and father David Tatar of Summerville, SC.; her father Michael Watson of Niles, OH. Grandparents Shirley Scanlon of Poland, Oh; Mickey and Robert Watson of Brookfield, Ohio and Karin and Mike Tatar of Struthers, Oh. She also leaves behind her brothers and sisters who she adored and loved: Mikey Tatar, Kristin Tatar, Matthew Tatar, Jacob Tatar, all of Summerville, SC; Ashley Watson and Anthony Watson of Niles, OH. She also leaves her Uncles and Aunts: Jimmy Scanlon (Tony Mixon) of Charleston, SC; Joseph Rossi (Marcie) of Canfield, Oh; Louis Rossi (Jody) of Poland, OH; Kelly Watson (Gia) of Niles, OH and Lori Ferreri (Rocco) of Austintown, OH. As well as numerous cousins and friends. Family and friends are invited to celebrate the life of this beautiful soul on Sunday April 2, 2017 from 1 - 4 p.m. at Rossi Brothers Funeral Home, 4442 South Ave. Youngstown, OH. A memorial service to honor and celebrate Alivia will be held in Summerville, SC at a future date. Visit our guestbook at www.legacy.com/obituaries/ charleston
