Family was at the center of Hollis's life. Whether coaching his children, attending their sporting events, or simply spending time together, his greatest happiness came from his loved ones.

In lieu of flowers, donations to his children's Education Fund are appreciated. A visitation will be held on Wednesday, May 28, 2025, from 3-8 PM at Hickey Memorial Chapel in New Lenox, IL. Hollis Weller will be remembered for his service, passion, and unwavering dedication to his family.
