  • Hollie Joanne Abicht

    Hollie Joanne Abicht
    July 7, 1934 – April 17, 2025
    “There is no night without a dawning
    No winter without a spring
    And beyond the dark horizon
    Our hearts will once more sing
    For those who leave us for a while
    Have only gone away
    Out of a restless, care worn world
    Into a brighter day.”
