I took Mr. Hollyman on many outings while he resided at The Heritage at Gaines Ranch in Austin. He was witty, extremely sharp and so kind. I feel luck to have had a chance to go to the movies with him on many occasions and to hear his opinions on the cinema experience. I also feel happy to have arranged specific outings to suit his film tastes. I will miss you Mr. Hollyman. Denise Scioli
