Holly Anne Gaspard, Age 57, embarked on her eternal journey on Tuesday, November 28, 2023 surrounded by the love of her family. She was born on December 18, 1965, in Marksville, Louisiana, to her mother, Gloria Gaspard and her late father, Martin Gaspard.

She is survived by her two cherished children, Hazedon Lee Barton and Gabrielle Desselle Barton. She is also remembered by her loving mother, Gloria Gaspard and by her siblings, Marty Gaspard (Cindy) , Sheryl Janet (Daniel), and Christina Harrison (Raymond). Holly is preceded in death by her brother Lane.  Holly's bond with her brothers and sisters was unbreakable, and the memories they shared will forever echo in their hearts.

With a strong focus on her education, Holly graduated at Catholic of Pointe Coupee and Northwestern State University. Holly found joy in life's simple pleasures. She had a passion for hot air balloon festivals, where the vibrant colors and soaring heights mirrored the spirit with which she lived her life. 

An enthusiast of life's celebrations, Holly reveled in attending parties, particularly relishing the joyous atmospheres of weddings and baby showers. Her presence added an extra sparkle to these occasions, and her infectious laughter echoed in the hearts of all who joined in the festivities.

As we say our goodbyes, let us remember Holly Anne Gaspard not with sorrow, but with gratitude for the light she brought into our lives. May her memory be a beacon of love that guides us through the shadows and inspires us to cherish every moment. Rest in peace, dear Holly. You will be deeply missed, but your legacy will live on in the hearts of those who were fortunate enough to know you.
