She was a retired teacher's aide in Hoover-Schrum School District and a member of the Catholic Church. She was a mother and wife to her husband of 62 years, August Rossi. Holly spent her days with her family and friends, celebrating their successes and achievements. She loved to travel and tell stories of her visits to foreign countries.

She is survived by her husband, August Rossi, her sister, Lois Cederlund, her brother, William Sterrett and his wife, Joan Sterrett, her three children: Bill Rossi and his wife, Kathy, Ron Rossi and his wife, Barb, and Lynn Rossi Winn and her husband, Jeff; eight grandchildren and two great-grandchildren.
