    My dear sweet friend, Holly, thank you so much for your friendship. Thinking of those fun days we had in elementary school will always make me smile. I could only imagine both of us all giddy with excitement when we found each other through Facebook after so many years. I realize it was fate to let us reminisce and share those cherished memories together while we could. Thanks for the memories. May you rest in peace. Love always, Nelia

    I remember when I was a little girl and my mom and I lived with Lisa and her beautiful mother Holly. I remember I use to love to hear her sing while she played her guitar. She had an amazing voice. She was a very special lady and she will be greatly missed. I am so sorry that I lost touch with her and her family over the years, but I thought about her alot. She was like an auntie to me. Her and my mother were such good friends that she kinda was like an aunt to me. She will be greatly missed. My heart goes out to your her family in your time of grief, and I know that she is smiling down on you with all the love that she has.

    Hey Hol - Wow.... I've tried to catch up to you for years and keep just missing you. Now you're staying put, but you don't have a lot to say! Go figure eh?! I'll never forget your goofy laugh and smile while you're holding a cup of coffee and cigarette. 🙂 I'm sorry for your family's loss. I'm sure you left a big hole. But you're at peace now and that has to be comforting. I'll look for you when I get to Heaven. Maybe we can catch up then! Until then Hol... may you rest in peace, and rise in glory. xoxo
