Hollis Irene Lee

Hollis Irene Lee, 76 of Gardendale, AL, passed May 31, 2025. 

She is preceded in death by her mother, Mozelle Edwina Forrester Kirby (Roy); her father, Joe Osborne Grubbs; grandparents, Zeke Forrester (Jessie); her sister, Hope Kirby; her brother, Joel Grubbs; her sister, Elouise McReynolds (Harry); and her brother, Stanley Jackson (Barbara).

She is survived by her daughter, Michelle Grubbs; her brother, Bill Grubbs (Judy); her cousins, Wayne Cobb (Sherry), Yolanda Cobb, Darlene Cobb Skinner (Keith); and many nieces, nephews, other relatives and friends.

Hollis loved her daughter, Michelle. The mere mention of her name brought joy to her face. She had great appreciation for Alabama football, and she could often be heard using the phrase "Roll Tide". She cherished her dog, Peppy, and enjoyed spoiling him. Hollis valued her family greatly, and they reciprocated their love for her. Her faith was an integral part of her life, and she revered Jesus as her Lord and Savior. She is now reunited with her family and praising Jesus.

Memorial service will be planned for a later time. 

Patterson Forest Grove Funeral Home and Crematory is honored to serve the Lee family during their time of bereavement. Expressions of sympathy and condolences may be shared at www.pattersonfuneralhomes.com.
