Noah
Noah was born to make people smile. His hilarious and witty sense of humor has left memories that lead to giggles and smiles. He was a hard worker. He loved carpentry. He loved animals. He valued friendship. Relationship meant everything to him.
Although Noah was a complete and total treasure to those around him, he simply did not thrive in a traditional educational environment. His out of the box thinking and problem solving was not cherished within the academic arenas that were provided to him. His high school graduation was a victory and a relief beyond measure for him.
​
Parenting a child that has so much untapped ability is challenging. As a busy mom, I tried with all of my might to meet his educational needs. I simply could not find a program that embraced Noah and challenged him with a love of learning.
​
I decided in the spring of 2018 that if an educational system did not exist that truly supported each person's individual strengths, then I needed to create one. Work started on the mission to provide a Christ centered education that was truly one of a kind. Noah loved working beside me as we created an environment that was so much more than we could have imagined.
​
On June 20, 2018, only two months before our scheduled opening of our dream school, I received a phone call that changed me forever. Noah fell into the grain bin at the family farm and drowned in a grain bin engulfment. The loss of this unbelievable person absolutely gutted our family. Our hearts are still completely broken.
​
In order to leave a legacy for my sweet son, we pushed through with the opening with tears streaming and hearts desperately trying to come to terms with a reality that seemed insurmountable to comprehend.
​
Ms. Holly's House is now enrolling for our seventh year. We are just as passionate about this mission as we were on opening day.
​
Noah Yeley, your mama sure does love you and I promise to continue to create a legacy that would make you proud.
