Yolanda M Holocker

Yolanda was a special individual she loved life she showed it in everything that she did. For the past four and a half years she battled colon cancer she was determined that she was going to give it her all and try to beat the cancer, but unfortunately: the cancer won. Yolie worked for Bullwhackers for 16 years she was a loyal and devoted employee she loved her job and her employees. She was always concerned about taking her employees candy or gifts for the holidays. She was amazing she went to work every day as long as she could calling in sick was a no, no for Yolie.

Yolie was the most giving person her doors were always to anyone if you needed a home Yolie never turned anyone away she had a big heart, maybe too big at times. You would walk into her home and the sound of music was always playing it was Mexican, country, or gospel she wore out several CD players, Melissa was tired of buying them.

About seven years ago Yolie learned to crocket Mom taught her on one of our visits to Denver which was only a three day visit she was sharp she picked up that needle and never put it down until November of 2010 when she just couldn’t do it anymore. Her afghans were beautiful all twenty something of them. She always counted them when Mom came to visit to make sure that Mom didn’t take any of them home with her she was very stingy with her afgan if you got one you were special to her.

Dancing was another of Yolie’s many talents ever since she was a young girl she loved to dance she could waltz around the floor all night long or do a graceful ranchta.

Yolie loved the Holidays she loved to buy gifts for her Grandchildren she was a tuff Grandma never really showing her affection but she really loved her Grandchildren and all her family members. Yolie cared for her little blue eyes on Fridays they would go shopping to Walmart and she would always limit him to only one toy. Little Blue Eye’s would sit and watch Grandma crocket at the table. She took him to Walmart one day and asked him to pick out colors so she could make him a blanket he picked out the Bronco colors. Little Blue Eye’s is Brendon.

Yolie had three children Val, Dennis and Melissa each child was special in her heart Val for her talented arts and crafts, Dennis for his sports and Melissa for going back to school after being out for 10 years working and going to school. Melissa is about to finish school and Yolie is going to be watching over her and seeing her graduate.
