Veda Ann Holland, age 72, of Quitman, went to be with the Lord and her Mama and Daddy on Thursday, July 4, 2013.

God blessed all of us to have her as a wife, mother, grandmother, great-grandmother and friend. She will be missed so much and always remembered through the lives she touched. We love you Mama and know you are wrapped in the arms of the Lord and Your Mama and Daddy.
