Someone asked me recently about some of my fondest Christmas memories, and funnily enough, most of them involved you!! From stopping by 176 to see Grandad dressed as Santa, to ‘The Tree incident’ , to Christmas’s at Party central, getting into bed with you and Timmy on Christmas morning with a Buck’s Fizz, opening presents. To more recent years, coming round to yours, or your mums, or Jim’s! Christmas with you drunkenly swaying, shouting Merry F@*#ing Christmas, while dressed as Mrs Christmas will always be my favourite though! Merry Christmas H, love you mate ❤️🤶

£600 was raised tonight at The Railway Inn, Ripple. Rob, Jim, Nikki and I took part in a quiz night along with 12 other teams. There was a raffle and auction too, everyone was so generous. I thanked everyone and told them about you and asked them to get checked if they have symptoms. We were not very good at the quiz but it did not matter! Aunty Janet did better, you would have cheered for her. We hope you are proud of what we are doing. If we can prevent one family from losing their loved one to this disease it will be worth it. We miss you so very much, every hour of every day. Xx

Just to annoy you… this time 9 years ago!! How I wish I could text you for the next 24 hours bugging you with the reminiscing! I’m sure you secretly enjoyed it 😂😂

It's hard to believe I had to let you go a year ago today. The truth is, I am still so incredibly sad and just need you here. I want to give you a hug and tell you about my day. I miss you and my life will never be the same but I promise I will continue to talk about you and tell people how proud I am you are my daughter. When I need to speak to you I will continue to look to the skies where I imagine you dancing with the stars.

Wow where to start… Life really isn’t the same with out you. 12 months since we were last together and chilling on your amazing massive bed. What I would do just to have 5 more mins with you and tell you how loved & amazing you truely are. Parker is turning more and more in to Jim and you would absolutely adore him & I know you would encourage his mischievous side even more. You would adore seeing Your Lil P, Lily & Harry together. They have such a cute friendship and we are so lucky to have Sian in our lives as a bonus Auntie and can tell Lil Man lots of stories about you ♥️ At the weekend we collected Parker his Bobbi Kitten and all I wanted to do is FaceTime & message you. I know you would have been the first person there for cuddles and I would be asking for you advice non stop. There is so much I want to talk to you about and it’s just not right you’re not here. I hope you are watching down on us and we are all trying to make you proud. Shine bright today & always and I hope you & Your Dad are propping up the bar up there 🥃🍾🍺 Love you & miss you 💔xxxxxxxx

How is it a year ago today since I last saw you?! I’m sorry for being stupid and cracking jokes with you, instead of telling you all the stuff I wish I’d said instead. I thought we still had time! They say times a healer, but if anything, the longer it goes since I saw you, the worse it gets. All the things you’re missing! You’d laugh at Lil and Parker - they’re so funny and cute together! Love you mate ❤️

I miss you so much my beautiful friend 💕 Think of you every single day xxx

Lil and I came and sat with you today and made daisy chains. I was telling her that if you were here, we’d have been in the beer garden this weekend and you would’ve taught her how to make them, just like I remember you showing Harry when he was a similar age 🌼

Been thinking about you a lot over Christmas, remembering all the Christmas's we have had. From when we were at school decorating your mums tree, me coming round to Pickersleigh road with Grandad dressed up as Father Christmas. To living together and me getting into bed with you and Timmy on Christmas morning with bucks fizz!! The Christmas parties at party Central- you dressed as Mrs Claus shouting Merry F**King Christmas 🤣 or more recently me, Ian and the kids coming over to yours for drinks on Christmas night, or boxing day. This first Christmas without you has been bloody difficult, but me and the kids have talked about you with Love, remembering how much Auntie Hollie made Christmas special, and also how amazing your presents always were😘 We love and miss you so much, but we talk about you every single day, and remember you with love. Merry Christmas mate. Cheers 🍻

Hollie you will be forever in our thoughts & memories, one of the kindest people we knew, love from Tracey & Jason 💜 xxx

Forever in my heart ❤️ xxxx

Thank you for setting up this memorial to Hollie. We hope that you find it a positive experience developing the site and that it becomes a place of comfort and inspiration for you to visit whenever you want or need to.

I am I and you are you, whatever we were to each other that we still are. Speak to me in the easy way which you always used. Why should I be out of mind because I am out of sight? Life means all that it ever meant, it is the same as it ever was.
