A life blessed by beauty, music, poetry and love came to its peaceful end, April 2, 1992, when Mary Regina ''Jean'' Harris Holladay passed from her mortal existence following a courageous battle with Cancer. Her life came to a close surrounded by family and friends ''at home'' in her beloved Holladay, Utah, which was settled by her husband's great-grandfather.
Born on Dec. 12, 1909, Jean was raised and educated in Salt Lake City. She married Earl Parnell ''Jack'' Holladay, June 1,1935. They settled in Idaho Falls, Idaho, to raise their family and open Holladay's Office Equipment. After her children were grown, Jean fulfilled a life-long dream, she opened Regina's Gift Shop.
Her devotion to home, church and community was marked by rich artistic expression, a desire and feeling for beauty, and unconditional love. She was a well-renowned soprano, a composer of music, and a published poet whose appreciation of the infinite she left for succeeding generations.
A Great Great-Granddaughter of Hyrum and Mary Fielding Smith, Jean's life-long adherence to the church Hyrum assisted his brother Joseph in restoring is manifest by the fact that her son and all of her grandsons served, or are serving full-time missions. Two grandsons, Jason Holladay and John Earl Nixon, are in Portugal and Guatemala respectively.
Funeral Services were held at 12 Noon on Tuesday April 7, 1992 in the Mount Olympus First Ward Chapel of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints located at 4625 South Lanark Road (3200 East). Friends attended a Viewing at Wasatch Lawn Mortuary, 3401 South Highland Drive (2000-East) on Monday Evening from 7:00-8:30 P.M. and at the Ward Chapel on Tuesday from 10:45-11:45 A.M.
