Ann Rene Hollick
Ann Rene Hollick was born January 4, 1934 in Morris, Minnesota to Thomas and Sarah Dewane. Ann passed from this life on November 17, 2010 from natural causes.
In 1946, after a short stay in Yakima, she moved to Richland with her parents. Ann was a long time member of Christ the King Church. She was an avid quilter, and frequently donated her time and talents crafting quilts for Catholic Family Charities and her family.
Ann graduated from St. Mary's School of Nursing in Walla Walla, and she dedicated her professional life to nursing for the next 30 years. Ann married James Hollick in 1955, and together they raised 10 children. Ann found time to read, solve crossword puzzles, play cards with her friends, and attend an occasional play or enjoy a grandchild's school or sporting event, all while balancing the demands of her nursing career and ever expanding family. Ann will be truly missed by all those who loved her.
She was preceded in death by her husband Jim in 2001, her son David in 1986, and her brother Tom. She is survived by her two brothers Jim and Jerry Dewane, children Jim, John JoAnn of Denver, Pete Debbee, Marj Petersen Jeff, Mary Frances Dwight Carter, Karen Wheeler Gary, Joe, Pat Bonnie, Tony Vanessa, eighteen grandchildren and two great grandchildren.
Ann's viewing will be held on Sunday November 28th from 5- 6pm at Einan's Funeral Home followed by a rosary from 6- 7pm.
A funeral mass will be held at Christ the King church on Monday November 29th at 11am followed by a graveside service at Sunset Memorial Gardens with a reception to follow at Memories at Sunset Event Center.
Ann was one of the nicest nurses I could have ever worked with. So nice, smart,and with sincere empathy
What a lovely photo of a wonderful lady who will be missed so very much. My condolences to all of Ann’s family. Hold your memories close because in the end that’s all we have. Ann was a remarkable woman. May she rest in peace.
To Ann Hollick’s family. I met Ann and her family, when my husband, Roland and children, Pam and Bill, moved into Perry Court in 1960. Ann was pregnant with Margie. We hit it off right away and spent many an hour over coffee/tea discussing raising children and the world problems. My son and Jimmy and John spent a lot of time playing together. I had lunch with Ann a few years ago, when I was visiting Roland and Bill. She looked as lovely then as she did when I first met her. In her picture, I can see that little sqirk of a smile when she looked at you. I was so sorry to hear of her death. She will be missed, but never forgotten.
I am so sorry to hear the news. Your mom was the best second mom a girl could have growing up.
I am so glad I had the opportunity to know your mother. She was a kind and generous friend and I will miss her. I will be praying for all of you during this time of loss. You were all so blessed to have her with you for so long. Karen
Pete,
Gary and I send our condolences. I am so glad I met your mom. She is a truly wonderful lady!
To Ann’s Family: Your Mom was a special lady. I knew her during our high school days in Richland. She kept in touch through reunions of the Class of ’51. She’ll be remembered as a loving, caring person. May God give you each comfort during your difficult days.
Russ and I send our sincere sympathy to Anns family. I enjoyed a television conversation with her in July so caught up on events in our lives. She was a great cousin.
Dear Ann’s Family, We are so sorry to learn of Ann’s death. She was such a wonderful lady and will be missed. I will miss her very practical advice and wise words she would contribute to Bible study. Sorry we will not be in town for the funeral Mass but our prayers are with you all. Bob and Donna

George & Cat Sullivan
Pat and Bonnie – my deepest sympathy to you both. I’m sending you hugs, and you are in my thoughts.
You are all in our thoughts and prayers during this difficult time.
I grew up 2 houses down from the Dewanes in Richland. Jimmy and Jerry were playmates along with the other younger kids in the neighborhood. I remember Ann as the good-looking sophisticated big sister. It is sad when childhood friends pass on. She will be greatly missed.
There are very few memories of my childhood that do not include members of the Hollick family. All my sympathies are with you in this time of great sorrow. Please accept all my condolences on your loss. We will keep you all in our prayers.
On behalf of the Patrick & Marcia Thompson, and sister Patricia Thompson we send our regrets to the family of Ann Pat had hoped to fly up, but weather seems to prevail. Our thoughts are with you, and your family. Though Ann is gone, the memories will always be apart to those “Good Old Day’s on Perry Ct.
To All Family Members: Ann was a true blessing to all and I loved having my one “special nurse” as my neighbor and friend when I lived as a child in Perry Court and then when I was raising my family there too. May your memories help you through your loss.
Rest in peace, Ann. Thanks for holding down the fort in good old Perry Court! It’s been great being able to come home over the years. Love, your brother, Jerry. Thanks everyone for writing to the guestbook.
To all of Ann’s family: Ann was my nursing partner in many years of working the Emergency Rm at Kadlec. She always “kept her cool” even in the worse cases. She was dependable, efficient, calm, compassionate, giving and a darn good nurse. She was a true blessing to many people and families, including myself. I have always appreciated working with her, and I know she was very proud of all her family members! May you rest in peace, Ann, and be reunited with your much loved hubby- Jim Sr. and son David again.
To all of Grandma Ann’s Family, we are proud we were able to have known her. She was a very patient woman with tons of love in her heart. Our condolences on your loss.
