Kenny and I were neighbors of Mr. Holly for years. Mr. Holly was so sweet to check on us if he heard we were ill. Even though on Hospice, he told me as long as he could he would serve his community, and he did. He will be missed. Heaven certainly gained an angel and we lost a good neighbor and the community lost someone that was always ready to do what was needed.

Betty, Peggy, Joanne, and families, I was so sad to hear of Mr. Holley's passing. I loved my time working with him at Food for Life. He had such a big heart and cared for others. What a blessing he was to my life and I'm sure to others. God bless you all
