Remembering Hollie
6 May 2022It is with much sadness that we update you all that on Tuesday May 5th at her normal bedtime, Hollie peacefully went to sleep for the last time with her Mum and Dad by her side.
She battled so hard over the past 4 years to beat this cruel disease, but she is now finally pain free and at rest.
Our hearts are broken, and not a day will pass when we don't miss her kisses, cuddles and beautiful smile.
We ask that in lieu of flowers or gifts to the family that instead you please make a donation to the Starship Foundation in Hollies memory on the following link:

Hollie's funeral service will take place at North Harbour Stadium and start at 3.30pm on Tuesday 10th May – all are welcome.
There is plenty of parking available at the stadium in car parks H, B or C, and the entrance to the room is behind the main ticket office to the left of gate A, signed as ‘North Entrance’.
The live weblink for the service is https://vimeo.com/event/2091111/28bb234082
There will be a book of remembrance for people to leave notes for Hollie and the family, children are welcome to bring pictures to add to the book if they would like to on the day.
Please wear colourful clothes and join family for refreshments after the service.
Thank you again for all your incredible support throughout the past few years, we wouldn't have had as long as we did with Hollie without everyone's amazing support xx

I am shattered with this sad news, tears stream down my face such a brave little girl. At this moment the world is a far sadder place for me, rest in peace little one. Love for ever Dave xxxxxxxxxxx

I am so very sad for this outcome. You have done all you could have possibly done as Hollie's parents. The worst thing is that she was inflicted with this cruel disease in the first place. I love that so many New Zealanders got behind your cause for Hollie and donated so you could try every possible treatment. At the end of the day, while they might have extended Holli's life, they would not be cures as there aren't any. So very sad for your loss.

I am truly saddened by the passing of Hollie. I remember seeing her on the AM show a few years ago she had me hooked straight away as were thousands of other kiwis, this adorable little girl who needed to raise money for the treatment of her condition. I was one of many who responded with donations and from what I recall it was a phenomenal response raising the necessary amount and then some within the day. There are a lot of good people out there and it restored my faith in humanity. We all hoped, as did the family, that the treatment would be successful and lead to her recovering but sadly it wasn’t to be. I would have been proud to have her as my daughter.
My deepest condolences to Hollie’s family.

My heart is breaking at the thought of the huge hole this little angel has left in your lives and in the world. Her precious energy will be missed by us all.
