3. Wrennie JOLLETT (ca 1900 Portsmouth, VA - 1977, Virginia Beach, VA) & David Gregory HOLLAND
Emily VanHazinga tells this story about her godmother, Wrennie Jollett Holland: "David was a civil engineer, and worked for the park service, though by the time I knew him, a diabetic condition had reduced him to the kitchen chair. I remember him as a sweet and thoughtful man; he died when I was about 6. Wrennie helped keep house for her in-laws. It was an old-fashioned extended family, with the grandparents, their unmarried adult daughter Cornelia, and David and Wrennie and their daughter sharing the large home. Mom says Wrennie and David had had a home of their own, nearby, on Lake Holly, but after it burned, they moved back in to 12th Street [Virginia Beach, VA], and stayed. I recall that each day Wrennie would dress nicely and walk up Atlantic Ave. at noontime to her sister-in-law's yarn and fabric shop, to allow her to escape an hour for lunch. Wrennie was simply the best knitter and seamstress that ever lived, and a wonderful cook who delighted in surprising us youngsters with special baked goods. Mom says she was a very large woman when she was a girl, but I knew her at 89 pounds. She was a devoted smoker of unfiltered Camels, and died of emphysema in the library at home, which had been rigged as a sick room, just a few weeks before my wedding in 1977. She's buried with the Hollands at Eastern Shore Cemetery in Virginia Beach, and was, I believe, a member of Galilee Episcopal Church."
