Hi Dick, Sorry for your loss of losing your lovely wife, Holly who I knew when I went to Nashua Business College. She always had a beautiful smile and was always very well dressed. She is in a beautiful, safe, loving place surrounded by angels. God is taking good care of her. Take care and God Bless you.

Dick: I was so saddened to hear of Holly's passing. She was such a quiet and wonderfully kind person. I'll always have fond memories of both you and Holly in the time we spent together at Nashua Business College. I think the last time I saw the both of you was one evening, after graduation, when you and I, along with Holly and my wife Linda, all jumped-into my mother-in-law's 68 Mustang and went to a party in Pelham. Where did the time go? Believe me, I share your pain, as my wife Linda passed away on 9/21/21. Her obituary was in the Telegraph as well as on the Carrier Funeral Home website in Windham. She was just a couple weeks short of turning 72. We were a month shy of having been married for 58 years. In any event, please accept my sincerest condolences, and know that I am thinking of you at this time. As we come to learn, even after losing one so close, life does go on; if for nothing else, for the sake of our children. Somehow, I feel certain that you and your family will come to support one another through this difficult time. Wishing you all the best. Henry Danis

Knew Holly since real young and a beautiful lady. Another sad loss for Dunedin Palms. She and Rip “loved Dunedin, Florida” and was a great supporter of all our events, never missed one.
