John Wayne Holcombe II

It is hard to not remember someone who saved my life on more than one occasion. I think about times we shared almost every day. Miss you John.

This man was my father, he was the only real father I ever had, I think about him every day, and what he has done for me. He loved me and took care of me, as if I was one of his own; he didn’t have to do that, he took time in when nobody else would. I wasn’t his birth child, but I thought of him as my birth father. He took care of me and fed me, clothed me, and he worked hard. Sure, he wasn’t perfect, but he was a good man. I loved him then, and I love him now. ~ Kourtnie Anne Holcombe

John, you were the homie! When I first met you, i needed to borrow a hammer and some other tool. You and your family were always kind to me and looked out for me. John helped me make Oklahoma as fun as it could be. I hope you can look down at all of us and hear our prays for you John! U ARE THE MAN!!!!!!!!

Our prayers are with you and your family.

Lynn and I always enjoyed visiting with John when we went to Zapata's in Lawton. He was so nice and helpful to our daughter, Laura, when she worked there. You are in our thoughts and prayers.

John was a great manager and friend. All of the memories from Zapata's will always be cherished. He loved his family dearly and talked about them constantly. My thoughts and prayers are with them. He was a great man.

John,

Although it has been far too long since we had seen each other, know that your memory lives strong in my heart. Our deepest sympathies and heartfelt wishes go out to your family.

The Zapatas Crew will miss you.

John,you were a great man, a mentor, and the best manager I ever had. You've always had a way of pacifying a bad situation or just bring joy and laughter to the people around you. You are deeply loved and missed. Your words will be with me forever, but you still stink at bowling. May God bless you and your family.
Zapata's Forever.

John, We love you so so so much and will miss you dearly!! You are forever in our hearts and on our minds!! Much love and sympathy to all our family and friends. All our love, Karen, Gregorie and Kourtnie Holcombe.
