Holly was one of my best friends at Opportunity Matters and swapping books all the time.
I miss her already, so very much.
I love you. I am comforted in knowing you no longer suffer.
Gary we are so saddened to hear of Holly’s passing. May you have comfort in the memories you will carry in your heart and know that she is now free of pain and will forever be watching over her family. It was both an honor and a pleasure to have known her.
Much love,
John and Bonnie
We were so sad to learn Holly passed away. While we know she no longer suffers, the world will be a little less bright without her ready smile and kind heart. When Terri worked with Holly at Tom Thumb in Litchfield, she was always a favorite co-worker. Our prayers are with all of her family who miss her so much. ~~ Jeff & Terri
