Olive B. (Barratt) Prater, 70, of Goldsmith Avenue, East Providence, passed away peacefully on August 3, 2025, at Rhode Island Hospital, surrounded by the love of her devoted family. She was the cherished wife of the late Thomas J. Prater and beloved companion of Bryan Bradley of East Providence.

Born in St. Albans, Vermont, Olive was the beloved daughter of the late Clifford and Elizabeth (Greenia) Barratt. She made her home in East Providence for the past 23 years, where she built a life full of warmth, creativity, and enduring love.

Olive found great joy in simple pleasures—spending time with her family and expressing herself through painting and coloring beautiful butterflies, which reflected her gentle, artistic spirit. She was a woman whose quiet strength and kind heart left a lasting impression on all who knew her.

She leaves behind a loving family who will forever carry her memory in their hearts: her daughters, Sylvia McIver and her husband John and Michelle Berlam, both of East Providence; her son, Robert Almeida of East Providence; seven grandchildren and seven great-grandchildren. Olive is also survived by her siblings: Patricia Metiver of Swansea, Clifford Barratt Jr., William Barratt, and Ida Narcovich, all of East Providence; Terry Barratt of Seekonk; Ricky Barratt of East Providence; and Judy Stewart of Riverside. She was predeceased by her sister, Linda Barratt.

Olive’s funeral service will be held on a date and time to be announced. A private Burial will follow at Vinnicum Woods Cemetery, Swansea, MA.

Her love and kindness will echo in the hearts of all who knew her.
