We are heartbroken to announce our beloved mom, Allison Holland, has passed from this life into eternal life. She died peacefully and knowing family was with her. She lived a long life full of much love, many adventures and lots and lots of laughter.

She was the Mom of Moms. She always thought of others before herself, making sure everyone was taken care of and doing well. She loved to cook and entertain, play bridge, see movies, read novels and visit family and friends. Most of all, she loved being a mom.

Our dear Mom will be missed immensely. She was the heart of our family. She had the best smile followed usually by her infectious laugh with an active sense of humor. She loved to talk with you and stay up to date on everything going on in your life.

She leaves behind her greatest treasures, her four children, John, Holly, Allen and Scott and three grandchildren whom she adored, Alexander, Juliette and Parker.

You are welcome to attend services on Thursday, January 12 at 2pm at Forest Park Westheimer, 12800 Westheimer Road, Houston, Texas, 77077.
