Daddy,
It has taken me a while to be able to write this to you. The pain, loss and heartbreak is unbearable. There has not been a day that has gone by where I don’t think of you and cry. I had the privilege of caring for you the last few months of your life. A life that you lived to your fullest. Always happy, leaning a helping hand to anyone and most of of loving mom, Jen , me and the kids. No one will truly understand the pain and suffering you went through. I will never forget your last breathe. I was honored that you waited for mom and Jen to leave your side and took your last breathe with me, holding your hand. Laying my head on your chest after you passed was the hardest thing I have ever been through in my life. I couldnt bear to see them take you from your home and from us that night. I struggle daily without you. I’m your baby girl. Your are my hero, my mentor and my heart. I will forever love you! I will forever celebrate your life. I will hold you in my heart forever. Thank you for giving me the best life you could have possibly given to me and the family. I’ll talk with you everyday. Until I’m in your hugging arms again in heaven. Rest In Peace Daddy. I know you are up there watching over us and laughing with Both GB’s and your brothers and sisters and most of all out of pain. I love you! Miss you!
Love your Baby Girl....Holly ( your name sake) Im little Hollis jr. just like you in every way!....you jokester! Smile big and bright, shine down on us.....my Sweet one eye Willie!
To the entire Boutian family we send our sincerest and deepest sympathy for the loss of your dear Hollis. We will miss him too. Our friendship with Hollis and Edna goes way back. Rad and I had the pleasure of double dating with them when we were still in high school. We wound up marrying the loves of our lives, and you really can't ask for better than that. We remained close through the years, with Rad and Hollis working together at the refinery and Edna and I keeping in touch. Though Hollis was taken from us far too soon, we know he's in a much better place with no pain or suffering. He was so blessed to have you all caring for him throughout his illness. We're so proud of Jenny and Holly stepping up to support both Hollis and Edna. Hollis always proudly bragged about his family, and rightly so. Know that in your times of grief you are surrounded and supported by family and many, many friends who dearly loved him and you all, as well. As always you will be kept in our prayers and in our hearts.
Edna, There will be things that trigger tears and things that will bring laughter... things that you never expected...but they will gently remind you of all the wonderful details that made your life with Hollis such a precious gift. Uncle Hollis was a wonderful person and I will miss him dearly. The service today was beautiful. Love You, Stacy & Mike
Aunt Edna, Jennifer, Holly
My prayers and thoughts are with all of you.
Uncle Hollis, we will miss that smile , you have a smile that lights up a room. We love you and we miss you.
Rhonda, Eric, Alyssa
