Once Molly was your friend, she was your friend for life. Rarely do we meet someone more sincere, nonjudgmental and full of life. Molly was a bright star in her field. Blessed Be

Molly came to visit us in Klamath Falls awhile back w Tim Kral. It was an immediate great connection we had. So spunky, so witty and so very kind! We became friends. Molly made my life more full, as we shared the weekend together, as family. I hope she will return as an eagle.

Recognized this name immediately, and indeed, it sounds as though Molly lived a wonderful life. I knew her sister Susie when her name was still Holsapple. In fact many decades ago she was in my wedding. Wonderful memories. Condolences to the family.

To Molly's Sisters, Hunt & Other Family - So sorry to hear of Molly's passing. I grew up with Suzie, Hunt, Molly and her sisters while living on the same street. Many memories. What a fine life she lived per the obituary remembrance. Condolences to her family. Kent H
