In her spare time she enjoyed watching her favorite shows; Criminal Minds, The Young and the Restless, Big Brother and Survivor. She was a huge fan of Michael Jackson and Shemar Moore. Holly was very into decorating for the holidays. She never limited her displays, it didn't matter if it was Easter, Thanksgiving or Christmas, you could always count on her apartment balcony to be decorated. She also loved shopping, especially for the newest Bath and Body Works products and her designer purses.
