In Memory of Holly Christina Stahl (BCHS, Class of 2009) .......
Holly Christina Stahl passed away on December 21st, 2010. Her family has recently established a memorial scholarship fund in her name to be administered by the Elmbook Education Foundation. Holly would have celebrated her 20th birthday on April 13, 2011. Holly was truly a breath of fresh air and will be forever remembered.
Holly was a 2009 honor roll graduate of Brookfield Central High School. She had also attended Wisconsin Hills Middle School and Swanson Elementary School. Her family indicated that Holly was touched by so many wonderful teachers in Elmbrook throughout the years and that Holly was especially inspired by Joyce Sponcia (Grade 3 teacher, retired) and Molly Mathia (Holly’s BCHS English teacher).
