Barbara (Harvey) Hollis, age 85 of Chatham, passed peacefully, surrounded by love, as her daughter held her hand on Friday, June 27, 2025.  Barbara was a quiet lady with a sweet soul.  She loved nature and spending her time outdoors.  Barbara could usually be found in her yard tending to her beloved gardens and caring for her plants.  She enjoyed hunting for petrified wood and arrow heads to add to her collection.  Barbara was an avid reader and always kept herself sharp and informed on a wide variety of topics.  She was the one you called when you needed help or information about something, she always usually had an answer.  Barbara loved and studied birds.  She could identify them by sound and sight.

Those left to cherish Barbara's memory is her daughter, Traci Lea Gilley and husband Clint; grandchild, Richard Grant Mayo.  She is preceded in death by her daughter, Terri Lynn McLaren; parents, Clyde and Carmen (Sinn) Harvey.

A private family burial will be held in Barbara's honor.
