“We talked about producing a film together for years and finally did it,” Lyon wrote, adding that he and the late actor worked on five projects together throughout the years. “Thank you for being a great colleague, actor and friend.”

Lyon further referred to Oliver as to “such a brave actor and a beautiful person.”

Oliver’s ex wife and mother to their daughters said in a statement, “The deep bond, infectious laughter, and adventurous spirit shared by Madita and Annik will be profoundly missed in their communities,” among the rest.

Our thoughts and prayers go to the family of Oliver and his daughters. May they rest in peace.
