Holly was well known for her gentle heart, sense of humor and infectious laugh. She has touched the hearts of many, especially in her field of work as an Health Care Aide, starting her career at the Willow Creek Auxiliary Hospital, then working for I.C.E, Cottonwood Village, and recently at the Silver Willow Lodge in Nanton, AB. She has made so many friends and cared so deeply about her residents and colleagues considering them all family.
Holly’s joys and hobbies included hunting, camping, family gatherings. Family reunions were a true highlight with card playing, horseshoes, and shenanigans.
Holly also dreamed of world travel, Germany was top of her list. She was fortunate enough to go to Newfoundland with her Amigos (Connie Hubka and Gloria Power).
Heaven has gained a true angel and we only part to meet again. We love you to the moon and back, and you will always be in our hearts.
A celebration of life will be held at a later date. In lieu of flowers donations can be made to Alberta cancer foundation, colorectal cancer at Jack Ady cancer centre. website www.Albertacancer.ca
