My beautiful Holly, you will forever be missed. 11+ years of banter, laughter & even some tears, you were always a bright light I could depend on. You helped me learn how to live without my Dad, yet you didn’t tell me how to live without you in this world. I thank you for who you were and all you stood for. Rest beautiful one and I will always look up searching for you.
Our deepest condolences to the family
Holly was a friend to me since meeting where we both worked in 2007.
She would reply to some story I messaged, saying “are you okay?”
She told me she loved that little place in Holden. I only got out to visit one time, and she made me a tuna sandwich, even though she preferred salmon.
About once/year we would have a small phone chat, and I can still hear her laugh.
Miss her.
REST EASY HOLLY. GOD BLESS ALL. CONDOLENCES.
So sorry to hear this news. Rest in peace my cousin.
Holly was always such a comedian. I can see her smile and hear her laughter. She will be missed!
My condolences to the family..she will be greatly missed..
My sincere condolences to the family and friends. The times I have spoken to her were always funny and good.
My deepest condolences to Lana, Marilyn and all of the family. I remember some really fun times hanging with Holly. I’ll keep you all in my thoughts and prayers.
