Hollie was born October 30, 1960 and was a lifelong resident of Tallahassee.

Hollie was active in St. Mary’s Circle, Junior League, Tallahassee Cotillion, Violet Garden Circle, and St. John’s Episcopal Church. Her volunteer work included The American Cancer Society Garden Party, Maclay School, and numerous other organizations. She is survived by her husband Guy Lindsey, daughter Lindsey Andrick, sister Susan Skelton and Sarah Skelton Rich (Jeff), nephews Chase, Ben, Connor, Jack, and Ty, parents Benson and Betty Ann Skelton. Family and friends were invited to a grave-side service 11:00am Monday, October 6, 2014 at Roselawn Cemetery.
