Holly had a delightful sense of humor, and I have very warm memories of the fun and close times we shared in our younger years. My thoughts and condolences are with Russ, Jordan, and the rest of her family.
No one can say anything that makes the loss of a loved one bearable. Even though we may not understand, remember and be comforted that we are all part of God’s plan. Holly made your life brighter and she is now at Home. Remember the good times and look forward to when you will be reunited.
A sister-in-law who had a beautiful laugh and smile and was fun to be around. I will miss her.
I would like to send my prayers to Holly’s family. My sophomore year of college was a year of great fun. I lived in a house with Holly, Irene, and Debbie. I have always had special memories of that time, and I am forever grateful for the opportunity to know Holly. Since that time, we have run into each other when she was visiting Clarkston. I always enjoyed seeing Holly and catching up on each other’s lives. May God bless your family with his love. Becky

Russ, and Jordan, I’m so sad for your loss. There is no one who can replace Holly. She has made a lasting impression in your lives and the lives of others. Cherish the times you have now together in her memory.
I am saddened upon reading of Holly’s death. Holly and I and many others taught together at the Children’s Home. She was a great teacher with a profound sense of humor, wit and full of fun. My love and prayers are with you. Linda Dial
