Today, as we celebrate the freedoms we enjoy as Americans, we also pause to remember those who made those freedoms possible. We are grateful for the men and women who have served our country, sacrificed for our nation, and helped preserve the liberties we hold dear.

From all of us at 𝐇𝐨𝐥𝐭 𝐌𝐞𝐦𝐨𝐫𝐢𝐚𝐥 𝐂𝐡𝐚𝐩𝐞𝐥, we wish you a safe, joyful, and meaningful Fourth of July.

Some things are simply too meaningful to put away.

While many people were preparing for the Independence Day holiday weekend, today was a regular workday at 𝐇𝐨𝐥𝐭 𝐌𝐞𝐦𝐨𝐫𝐢𝐚𝐥 𝐂𝐡𝐚𝐩𝐞𝐥. We spent part of the day doing something we've wanted to do for a long time—giving new life to a small piece of our history.

The letters that now proudly spell 𝐇𝐎𝐋𝐓 on our building aren't new. They once hung on the original Holt Funeral Home on Main Street, just south of the hospital. When the funeral home moved to our current Capps Road location in 1974, those same letters were carefully preserved and mounted on the funeral home's roadside sign, where they welcomed families for nearly five more decades.

When a new sign was installed in 2021, we couldn't bring ourselves to part with those original letters. They had become more than just a sign—they had become a symbol of the families, memories, and generations who have entrusted Holt Memorial Chapel with the care of their loved ones.

Today, those letters found a new home.

A special thank you to Mark Sloan, Allison Redman, Keith DeMuth, and Carson Collie, who helped carefully install this piece of Holt history for our community to enjoy.

As Harrison celebrates its 150th birthday this year, and America celebrates its 250th birthday, we're reminded that history isn't just found in books. Sometimes it's found in the people who came before us, in the buildings that have stood the test of time, and even in the letters that have welcomed families for generations.

For more than a century, Holt has been part of Harrison's story. Today, we are honored to remain the oldest continuously family-owned and operated funeral home in the area, a legacy made possible only because of the trust and confidence generations of families have placed in us.

We're grateful to preserve a small piece of our past while continuing to serve families with the same compassion, dignity, and excellence that have guided 𝐇𝐨𝐥𝐭 𝐌𝐞𝐦𝐨𝐫𝐢𝐚𝐥 𝐂𝐡𝐚𝐩𝐞𝐥 for generations.

Here's to the history that shaped us, the community that continues to support us, and the privilege of serving Harrison for many years to come.

At 𝐇𝐨𝐥𝐭 𝐌𝐞𝐦𝐨𝐫𝐢𝐚𝐥 𝐂𝐡𝐚𝐩𝐞𝐥, we know that laughter is one of life's greatest gifts. A good joke, a funny story, or a shared smile can brighten even the toughest days and bring people together in meaningful ways.

Every life has a story, and sometimes it's the personal touches that tell it best.

Charlie Welch loved tending his garden and sharing its harvest with family, friends, and neighbors. For his funeral service, his family worked with Teresa Journagan at Caspian Flowers to incorporate fresh vegetables from Charlie's own garden into several of the floral arrangements. A tomato plant was also delivered as a special tribute. The result was beautiful, meaningful, and unmistakably Charlie.

At 𝐇𝐨𝐥𝐭 𝐌𝐞𝐦𝐨𝐫𝐢𝐚𝐥 𝐂𝐡𝐚𝐩𝐞𝐥, we believe the most memorable services reflect the unique life that was lived. Whether it's favorite flowers, hobbies, music, vehicles, or other personal interests, we love to see families create tributes that truly tell their loved one's story.

Sometimes the most meaningful details are the ones that make everyone smile and say, "𝐓𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐰𝐚𝐬 𝐬𝐨 𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐦."
