Wanda Myrtle Holland/Kelley, 81, of Dudleyville, Arizona was called home on June 24, 2025. Wanda was born on August 06, 1943 in Alvin Texas, to Cyrus and Dorothy Holland. She was raised in Ray and Dudleyville, AZ.
Wanda was married to Robert Kelley for 36 years until his passing, and previously to Russell Hillman and Bud Coy. During those times she had four beautiful children. Pam Hillman, Greg Hillman (Angie), Tammy Judd and Marty Kelley (Donna). Wanda lived in many States and Countries such as Wiesbaden Germany, Wisconsin, Illinois and Nevada. She also had a generational line in the Copper Mines.
Wanda hated her middle name but would always use the M. which was kind of odd, because people would then ask her what it stood for, but we all knew. Wanda was a Homemaker and Special Education Aide.
Wanda loved family, kids, her grandkids, all her nieces and nephews. She will be deeply missed by all in return. There was no limit to her dedication, she would get on the floor and play with all of them. There were so many adventures with the grandchildren, one of her favorites was when Alyssa took her to get her first and last tattoo!
When Wanda wasn't playing with the kids, she was enjoying the kitchen. Cooking her family's favorite dishes. She was an amazing cook and didn't like anybody else's cooking. There was one time there was too much mustard in her daughter's potato salad, and she never let it go. She loved to hotrod around in her Jeep and quad. Among her talents was sign language and taught everyone to sign I Love You. She was very generous and loved to give food and items to her neighbors and family.
Her favorite things were the color Blue (blue topaz/diamonds/turquoise jewelry, bottles and especially her blue Jeep), crosswords and adult coloring, blingy Jeans and boots, her TV crime shows, Popcorn, Jellybeans and Wild Cherry Pepsi.
Wanda is preceeded in Death by her Husband Robert (Bob) Kelley), her Parents Cyrus and Dorothy Holland, and sister Nancy Holland. She is survived by her four children, seven Grandchildren, (Alyssa, Kyla, Chase, Amanda, Megan, Clint and Jamie), her eight Great Grandchildren, (Xavian, Onyx, Jax, Reagan, Carter, Aubrey, Delaney and Jamie), her brother Frank Holland, and sister Linda Cleveland, along with many nieces and nephews.
