    Holly was one of a kind, a true force to be reckoned with. The friendship we shared will forever be engrained in my heart. She will always be remembered for how hard she loved her friends and family, for the pride she held in hard work, and the true beauty she was. I don’t imagine that any amount of words can dull an ounce of the heartache but you have an army of a community who loved Holly dearly, and we are here for you. xx

    I tried to write a tribute but it keeps getting deleted for some reason… I’ll never forget that beautiful contagious smile and how she lit up every room she walked in. I didn’t know her as long as most folks but she was special to me and left a lasting impact on me. I will never forget her. Sending out prayers to Kandy and Jeff and all of her family and friends.
