So sorry to hear of Mr. Holley's passing. I enjoyed working with him at the McDuffie Hospital Auxiliary. He was always very nice.

I hated to hear of Mr. Clarence passing. I remember him as a Godly man. He always attended our Executive Committee meetings for our Association with his wife Nell - this year's meeting was at Mt. Horeb and he was there. He was our Kilpatrick Baptist Association GA Baptist Children's Home Representative. He would take many gifts to the Baxley campus for many years. A dedicated, loyal Christian that never lost focus on the true meaning of being a Man of God. We will surely miss him, but I know He is very welcomed where he is now. Carol K Gilmore, Kilpatrick Baptist Association and good friend.

Nell,
We were so saddened to hear Clarence had passed. He was such a fine man and we thought so highly of him. No doubt, he is having a glorious reunion in heaven. Our love, thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. We love you.
