Mr. and Mrs. Holloway and Barbara -- I am so sorry for your loss. I remember the wonderful times growing up on Routten Road where I played at your house. We had so much fun playing in the woods and near the water (as well as getting into mischief). My family and I will be praying for you all in this difficult time. Our thoughts are with you.
