The Joan Campion Reilly Holm ("Joan My Mom") Shrine (Aspen Mountain)
The Joan Campion Reilly Holm ("Joan My Mom") Shrine is on Aspen Mountain. The author found it on March 6, 2012. It is located near the Buckhorn Cabin, and is dedicated to Joan Campion Reilly Holm. It was installed by Joan's daughter, Megan, who told the author in March 2012, "I put the shrine on Aspen Mountain in winter 2009…she died on October 31, 2009. It helps me to stay connected to the spiritual and physical world as it helps me to remember that she is often in my thoughts and always in my heart. We love her and miss her very much. Not many people have been there yet, but it is a special place for me to go and be at peace. It helps me remember her and know that she is often in my thoughts but always in my heart." The memorial consists of a green metal plaque with white lettering ("Joan, My Mom Love Megan") some flowers, and an "Irish Blessing."
