Holly is the one person who always brings a smile to my face even if hers isn’t smiling due to her circumstances. She laughs when most people would cry. She stays in the game when most people would want to be benched. And she always tries to find the God perspective. She is a highlight in my life!

Read MoreI have known Holly since she was in High School. She has always been a girl/woman who I could laugh with - crazy loud as well as shed some tears with. Holly has been a person whose difficult circumstances have not defeated her. Her faith, perseverance and sheer determination have been an encouragement and challenge to myself as well as to many others. I love Holly's honest and meaningful sharing of her life, her difficulties and her heart for what really matters - looking to and living for Jesus. She truly is an inspiration of HOPE.

Read MoreI have known Holly since my sophomore year at Holland High. Holly was THAT GIRL. Holly was that girl with the charismatic personality that matched her crazy, cool, curly hair. She was that girl on the cheerleading team that I looked up to because her school spirit echoed the Spirit in her heart. She was that girl in theatre that was talented enough to make me hate her as the Wicked Witch of the West in Wizard of Oz and then adore her for her role as the blind Helen Keller in The Miracle Worker. Holly was just THAT GIRL that we all loved and adored for so many reasons.
I don't know why God chooses some people to carry so much pain. I cry when I think of Holly carrying it, but in a strange juxtaposition of sadness and gratitude, I am given HOPE that it is through Holly's story of pain that more and more people are going to hear the name of Jesus.
She's THAT GIRL... always has been and always will be that girl that I will remember when I need Jesus in my time of pain.
