She especially liked to watch Miss America pageants on tv and then sew matching dresses for her Barbie doll. Her husband was actually a life-long friend whom she met at age 16. They stumbled upon each other at Kodak. She loved her family, and her grandson, Kai, kept her motivated and strong. Her favorite holiday was Thanksgiving. She was a dedicated, hard-working woman who held jobs at JoAnn Fabric and Petco where she was the District Manager. Holly was extremely organized. In her spare time, Holly enjoyed quilting, sewing, travel, crafting, baking, and boating. She liked spending time on the water, animals, and she vacuumed constantly!

Family and friends would best describe Holly as upbeat, always smiling, appreciative of others, thoughtful, social, living each day to its fullest, being a kid at heart, and creative.
