Dear Sherry and Family, So many emotions welled up in me all at once when I saw Holly's Obituary today... just over 8 months have passed since Holly moved on to be with her Dad in Heaven and I am sure that not a day goes by that all of you don't think of her presence and impact here on Earth. I too have often thought about Holly over the last 17 years or so, since I had the pleasure to meet and become aquainted with Holly. I also had the amazing opportunity to spend time with her as her roommate and a caregiver back in 1995/1996. Holly was kind-hearted, loving and patient (especially when I was learning to help her with things) and she always had a smile to greet you. She reminded me to love without conditions and also she made me want to be a better person. Holly also helped me to remember not to take things for granted, as she always made the most of each day in her own life. I am blessed to have known Holly. Holly and I were the same age, though she was a few months older then me. I lost touch with her when I moved away, but I heard and knew that she was happy and that she was able to celebrate many more milestones and events in her own life. I am sad that she isn't here to create new memories with all of you. But I am also grateful that she is not suffering and that she can now not only look at the skies from above, but run through the clouds (I remember being told that she and her Dad used to look up at the skies and clouds in the summer and imagine the clouds to be animals, castles and such). Now she is able to be and feel free to live in happiness with God.May the memories with Holly that each of you have bring comfort and peace always. May God Bless all of you and heal you with his love. With condolances and love,Shannon (St. John) LemermeyerA candle was lit

Thank you, Louise, for letting me know about Holly's new journey. As we can see from the photos here she had many journey's here on earth and now gets to journey without the encumbrance of her wheel chair and accoutrements. Since receiving this email early this morning, I have had floods of memories, of the courses we ran in Fort St. John, getting to know such caring and wonderful people including you Louise, Holly and her one-of-a-kind family. I was privileged to stay on the farm with the McDonald's, meet April and her children, Mirriam, Laurie, and get to know Bill and Sherry better and see the amazing life that Holly had. I see from the pictures that it continued. Holly, a beautiful woman, surrounded by love, and many beautiful women. To you, Sherry, my highest tribute, such a loving and visionary woman who did not even hear the words 'no', 'can't', 'impossible' but only her conviction that each member of her family grow up and have a life of meaning. Holly was an ode to this belief. I am so sorry we lost touch after Bill and Sherry's surgeries. I hope we will connect again. My heart is full and recognize the huge hole that Holly leaves in the fabric of your lives. I remember a young man, Rodney, that I worked with in Ontario many years ago, the terrific challenges and frustrations that were everyday life for him and his dad telling me how much they valued his presence in their lives, all the ways that he enriched their lives and provided the best kind of glue in their family. I see the same here. To all the McDonald's and their offspring, Holly's care givers, and friends, I send my thoughts, prayers and love. Sandy Wrightman

I got to know Holly when I worked at NPSS. We had so much fun there. Holly was always a joy to be around and was probably the only one who laughed at my jokes. Over the years we would bump into each other around town and Holly would always have a big smile. I will always treasure my friendship with Holly. Keep smiling my friend.

Holly wasn't able to enjoy many of the things the rest of us have to enjoy in this world. But we didn't see her sad often. Even the week before she died she laughed when Saige climbed in her hospital bed with her. Holly, we will remember the joy you shared with us and the appreciation you always showed of life.

Holly has been a part of our lives in many ways but we will especially miss her at the North Peace Ride for the Disabled every Wednesday night. Holly loved to be on a horse and the people who supported her in doing that considered it a great honour and experience to make that happen for her. Our condolences to the family.Liz and Alicia Calder and members of the North Peace Ride for the Disabled

The light of these candles cannot compare to the light that shone from Holly's lovely eyes. She was always so thrilled to see a family member or friend and that was clear to us even without words, through the sparkle in her eyes. Rest in peace lovely young lady.

I spent a lot of time with Holly in my childhood at the CDC. When ever I saw Holly she always had a great big smile on her face. That is what I will remember.

Holly had a twinkle in her eyes to add to her smile that could light up a room. We will always have that memory to cherish, Tyler had a love for Holly that made us all smile,and be protective at the same time, as he just wanted to hug her. She always made his day when he got to see her, Once a week he had a chance to see her at the Enrichment Program through the college. We will meet again,until then we love and miss you.Debbie,Milt, Ashley and TylerA candle was lit

As long as I can remember, I had a cousin named Holly, only 3 years younger than myself. Now, Holly could not run and play with me like my other cousins could because she was trapped inside a body that couldn't do those kind of things. Holly also couldn't speak either. However, she was always an integral part of our extended family and someone that I looked forward to seeing at family gatherings. In her own way, she did communicate and it made my day to see her smile and know that she was happy to see me. Just over a week ago, I saw Holly for the last time on this earth. There is now a big empty spot in our family circle. There is also a hole in my heart and I will always miss Holly. I look forward to seeing her in Heaven where I know she will have a new body and maybe then we can play and run together the way that we never could as children.
