Holly’s husband, Jack, suffered immeasurably with cancer prior to his death. She shared her story with us in 2016, hoping to one day see a death with dignity law pass in Maine.

Holly continued treatment and cared for herself in the best way possible, living long enough to see the Maine Death with Dignity Act pass and go into effect in September of 2019.

Holly died in August, 2021, after qualifying and using her medication.

Rest in power, Holly. You’ll be missed.
