My Sweet
Butterfly Girl
4/25/78 ~ 11/13/04
No Words
However eloquently spoken
Masterfully phrased
Can express the Love
I have lost this day
Holly was tragically taken from us, due to an automobile accident at 11th E. and 4500 So. on Nov 13, 2004.
On the day she was born her daddy called her the most beautiful and perfect girl he had ever laid eyes upon. She was his horseshoeing partner and camping partner in her youth. She was a "No Pink" kinda girl. She was artistically talented, and a very levelheaded young lady. Holly had many facets of interest in her life, camping and fishing in the Uinta Mountains, and being a member of The Society for Creative Anachronism where she learned to belly dance were among her favorites.
All her grandparents precede her in death. She is survived by her parents Barbara Myers Smith of Nyssa, Oregon; Ronald L. (Alice) Smith of Vernal, Utah; her sister Rosemary (Bruce Call) of Edgewood, Texas; her soul mate and Fiancé Richard A. Bullock. She loved her animals, Wolfgang and Ogre, Boo kitty, and Dotomus.
I loved her so much. The brief time that I had to spend with her was just precious to me, our trips to Moon Lake, walking under a star filled clear night talking of the future and what it held for us.
I'm going to miss talking to her, being able to hold her close, and of course putting mud in her hair.
Bye my sweet love,
My Butterfly Girl <! >
I called Holly Smith "our little Iron Butterfly" on many occasions. The title seemed to fit so well. She was a woman of great strength, clear insight, and high intelligence with a direct sense of purpose. Holly was also flamboyant, fun loving, a schemer, and a dreamer. I am not Holly's best friend; that title goes to another. I am also not, the most beautiful woman in town, or the most talented, courteous or patient.
But Holly always made me believe I was in the running. She always held me up to my potential and never let me down.
She treated all her family and friends like precious flowers. Feeding us just enough sunshine, water and "B.S." for us to thrive in her company. What we will do without our little iron butterfly is up to each of us. I intend to keep her close to my soul where she has always been.
