Her smile always lit up the house. She gave so much to all Alpha Phi sisters at OSU. 
I got the privilege of working with Holley for 22 years at The Standard. Holley hired me in 1998, and I was lucky to report directly to Holley and support her in Legal and Corporate Governance. Holley had high expectations of her team and was a constant professional. You always strived to work hard for Holley. Holley always supported her employees. We had long mentor sessions, and I have always valued Holley’s advice and wisdom. Holley loved her family and was so excited to be a grandma. She shared many pictures of her girls and grand babies. To me, Holley was a mentor but more importantly a friend. She took an interest in my life professionally and personally and I will forever be grateful to Holley for her love and support. Holley, I miss you every day. 
I meant Holley at Oregon State at the Alpha Phi house.  She was a leader that showed strength, kindness and warmth. She and her sister Kelly had the biggest smiles. Sending love and prayers to all the family. She will be missed!

My condolences to Holley's family. I first met Holley when I started working for Standard Insurance in 2000 and we would often meet for Holley to sign a number of the company’s financial statements (the Blue Book). I also had the same morning routine in the gym with Holley. So sorry such a remarkable lady is gone too soon.

Holley was a frequent partner of mine in work activities...and memories... at The Standard for decades. While I'm sure I was mostly a pain for her in most cases :) she nevertheless was always professional, calm, and capable, probably saving me from being in more trouble than I otherwise would have.  I did try to make her laugh as often as possible; that was always worth it,  and I can still hear that now.   So sorry to hear of her passing and I can only sense the loss for the family.  May her memory always be a blessing.

I’m so very sad to lose Holley. She was an amazing person, wise leader and colleague. I had the privilege of working for and with Holley for many years and she was a mentor and treasured friend. Holley loved her family, especially Rick, her daughters and grandchildren and she was understandably proud of them.  She left a strong legacy at The Standard. I still miss her everyday and frequently think about what I learned from her and how grateful I am to have had the chance to know her and work with her.

I’m so sad for your loss of Holley.  She was a sorority sister of mine and always so fun to be around. Her kindness, intelligence and beauty stood out. I will always remember her great smile and thoughtfulness to all.

Holly was one of the best reasons for working at The Standard. I so enjoyed working with her❣️

I was so sorry to hear about Holley’s illness. I am blessed that I was able to give her a hug and talk with her before her death. My prayers go out to her family.

I worked with Holley for 20+ years at The Standard and she was always a delight. Always a smile, professional and wonderful demeanor.  I was truly saddened to hear of her untimely passing. She will be missed by many, but her legacy will live on. My condolences to the entire family. Rest well Holley
