I MET HOLLY IN AUGUST 2006 when we were “randomly” assigned to be roommates in the freshman dorms. I found her to be beautiful, curious and delightful. Over the years we’ve learned through one another our strengths and downfalls. We’ve laughed so hard through sunshine and cried together on tough days.
Over the past five years, she’s been my confidant, long-lost sister, and comic relief. I can’t picture our dorm rooms without her cereal bowls scattered about, procrastinating nights without the pizza and impersonations, roadtrips, sleepovers, her consoling words or hugs when I needed them. I can’t imagine college without Holly—college wouldn’t be college without Holly. She has built me up as a person and a friend and made my life so, so wondrous. She has changed my life!
In August 2006 I was “randomly” assigned a best friend, who will be with me until we’re gray and golden, through grandchildren and good times. Holly is forever my friend and sunshine on my soul.











Beautiful words from a beautiful person about a beautiful person. I don't think “random” had anything to do with it. God just knew what you both needed in your lives.
I am so blessed to have a Holly…and a Mama Lavecchia!
