It is with great sorrow that we must say goodbye to Rita Ann Holley, who died April 23, 2015, at the youthful age of 60, after a brief illness. Rita will always be remembered as a beautiful spirit with a kind and tender heart and tremendous love for all creatures great and small. She was preceded in death by her parents, Franklyn and Charlie Johnson. Rita is survived by her loving husband, Randall Holley; brother, Franklin Stephen Johnson; sisters, Frieda Lynne Norris, Anita Heiland (husband, Kurt) and Elizabeth Lee Johnson; several cats and a dog. There will be no funeral service at the present time. The body will be cremated and a memorial service will be scheduled at a later date. In Lieu of flowers, please make a contribution to the ASPCA or your favorite Humane Society or shelter, as a tribute to Rita's great love for animals.

My sincere condolences to Rita's family. She was one of my best friends in high school and I still think of her often even though we lost touch years ago. She was a wonderful person and will be sorely missed by all who knew her. God bless you and keep you and always remember you will see her again.
