Holly and I shared many experiences. Growing up a block apart from each other, we walked to school together, rode our bikes, had pool parties, stayed out till the street lights came on. Saturdays we spent at the record store and enjoyed lunch at our local burger hangout. Our families took summer trips together to Wisconsin Dells, picnics at the Indiana Dunes and festive holiday gatherings. These are some of the most cherished childhood memories. During our teen years, we danced, laughed, hugged, and cried together. Our friendship provided a safe space for confiding in each other about all our hopes, dreams, and worries. Throughout the years, we shared a strong sisterly bond. We had each other’s backs and always looked out for each other. Our bond remains a treasured part of our lives and is a source of comfort and support. Holly you are forever in my thoughts, prayers, and heart, highlighting the deep and lasting impact you have had on my life. You are my cousin, my friend, my sister, my hero. I love you.
Always in my Heart. Never forgotten. Always told her it was a Jolly Holiday with Holly. Some people touch so many souls. With out even knowing. She was one of those. The days i worked with her at Jim Click will never are forever with me. So blessed to have known her.
My deepest condolences to the family. I was blessed to work with your mom and I just love her. She had the best stories and the most contagious laugh. Holly would read with a red pen right and correct any grammatical errors. One book she got so mad at she threw it away. God bless you Holly Berry and may your soul rejoice, sing, dance, and fly with the Angels.
My heart breaks over and over again when I think of all I lost the day you left, but rejoices for you and for what you gained that day. That day, I lost the person who has loved me the longest, my best friend and the kindest, most patient person I have ever known; but you are now free from the bondage of MS and everything that it stole from you over the years. I will miss you forever and look forward to the day when we will be together again. I love you, momma!
