Holly was a great childhood friend. We always laughed together and she could make anyone smile. I remember seeing her at Mayfest and wishing there was more time to sit and talk. She was "one of a kind" and will be missed.

Holly was one of my best friends in High School and after. Her smile, sense of humor, and just down right niceness made her one of my favorites. She will be missed and my condelences and prayers to the family.

Holly was a good friend during my high school days. She had a beautiful smile and infectious laugh. She was such fun and, I'm sure, will be missed by many. My condolences to her family.
