Best, Holly Marie ~ 59, passed away peacefully on March 31, 2020 with family at her side. Born in Wolfville, she was a daughter of the late Rosamond Snider and the late Ken Best.

Holly was a loving mother of seven children. She was passionate about family, community, and music. She touched many lives through her involvement with organizations such as "The Haven" and supported many different charities through her music. She was a kind soul who stood up for what she believed in and helped others in any way she could. She was a loving mother, daughter, sister, and friend and will be sadly missed by everyone who knew her.

Surviving are her children: Lisa (Pat) Quigley; Jaime (Jason) Carrigan; Andrea (Nathan) Cassidy; Jenna (Ken) Creemer; Adam (Vanessa) Hutchinson; Mitchell Weatherbee (Kaleen Lawrence) ; Logan Best (Teresa Armstrong); 16 grandchildren; three great grandchildren; sister Heather Best; brothers Danny (Tammy) Snider; Donnie Snider (Sherry Bezanson); Ricky Snider; step-father Donald Snider; step-mother Gladys Best.

Besides her parents, she was predeceased by a son in infancy Jeremy Colin Hutchinson.

With respect to the current and ongoing concern with the Covid-19 pandemic and to keep everyone safe, a ceremony to honour Holly will be announced at a later date. Interment will be in the Tremont Cemetery, Tremont. Funeral arrangements have been entrusted to the Middleton Funeral Home.1
