Holly will be dearly missed by us all. I was fortunate enough to meet Holly during our freshmen year at SCAD through soccer, Holly was an incredible talent not only during competitive games but also during practices where her true grit and determination was visible in abundance, this coupled with a beautiful personality. Our thoughts and prays go to Holly’s family.

I met Holly on a stroke of luck that placed me underneath her tutorship when I first came to scad and landed playing goalie, a position I had never played before. After the hours she would put in coaching the team during regular practice, Holly would stay after hours when everyone else packed up and teach me her trade. She would line up barrels and make me jump over them and land flat on my side, and other maniacal forms of torture she had learned during her years of goalie, telling me to toughen up when I whined uselessly ;-). She was a fantastic coach. It was during these one-on-one sessions that I got to hear about her own goals in life, or her one main goal in life to be exact. She wanted more than anything in her life to create a family of her own. She knew there where risks in having children with her condition but she didn’t care! I had never heard someone speak with so much passion and conviction, and I was awed by her courage. So this is my thanks to Christian and little Sarah, whom I’ve never met but greatly admire. You made her dreams come true. And to her family, for she would not have such great aspirations if she did not have an inspirational foundation from which to jump from. Rest in Peace Holly. You did it.

I also played soccer with Holly at SCAD. I remember the first time I met her, I was taking her around when she came to visit SCAD. Her strength of character was evident immediately. As I got to know her over the next few years, I enjoyed her huge heart on and off the field, her wonderful and positive outlook on the world, her kindness, and her great sense of humor. I know we are all saddened by the news and will be thinking of and praying for her family.

I played soccer with Holly at SCAD. She was on of the first people I met and made it so much easier living far away from home.
She was always so positive and hardworking. And an awesome Goalie:)
I will be praying for her Husband and daughter. God Bless

I just saw on the SCAD Alumni newsletter that Holly had passed. I remember Holly quite well from our Freshman year at SCAD were we both met playing soccer. We always saw each other in the dorms and she was such a nice friendly and kind girl and a good soccer player. Best wishes to your family in this difficult time.

Holly was one of my first friends. We were so little then, back in kindergarten. I'll never forget Holly chasing me around trying to kick me in the shins. My mom was the librarian at Sierra Vista, and use to drive this big yellow truck. I have this memory of sitting in the cab of the truck after school with Holly. We had our heads out the windows on either side trying to catch raindrops in our mouths. Good times then. Holly, God be with you and your family.
