Ilyne Holm's Obituary
ILYNE HOLM
Jan. 27, 1930—May 21, 2012
Ilyne Holm passed from this life on May 21, 2012, at the age of 82. Her fun-loving personality and sense of humor endeared her to her family and many friends throughout her life. She was born Johnnie Ilyne Davis on Jan. 27, 1930, to loving parents, Ilan and Lurlene Davis of Tatum, TX. Ilyne attended Tatum Schools and was a lifelong member to the First Christian Church. She worked successfully at many jobs where her lively personality met the public. Ilyne always enjoyed the many activities of her three children and, later on, her grandchildren. She was quick to engage everyone with a smile and a laugh. Even as Alzheimer's began stealing her memories, she entertained and brought
smiles to many faces at the Clairmont Nursing Home where she spent her final years. "Miss Ilyne" as she was fondly known, was loved, and now missed, by all.
She is survived by her children, Robert Davis and wife Vickey of Longview, TX,
Vonda Galles and husband Gene of Elysian Fields, TX, and Jack Vallee and wife Melissa of Midland, TX, eight grandchildren and 10 great-grandchildren.
Funeral Services for Ilyne Holm will be at 10:00 AM at the First Christian Church of Tatum under the direction of Rader Funeral Home, Reverend Larry Stegall officiating. The family would like to express their appreciation to the "angels" at Clairmont Traditions Unit and Good Shepherd Hospital for their compassionate care of their mother. Donations may be directed to the Clairmont Nursing Home Activity Fund 3201 N. 4th St. Longview, TX, 75605, in memory of "Miss Ilyne".
