Gone but never forgotten

Marshall was a friend

i counted it a pleasure and a blessing that our path crossed. He was an inspiration to me. Every visit you made me laugh, and i always look forward to seeing you. You truly lived a fullfilled life and you have touched many lives. you were passionate about what you did, and you truly care. God bless your family. REST IN PEACE.Sandra Marshall-Wray.

It was truly a blessing to have known "Doc Holley". He will always be remembered for his kindness and giving spirit. Hearing him call my name at the Yale tournament was always the highlight of my tennis season. My blessings to his family.
