I had the pleasure of working with Judge Holcomb at the Tyler Court of Appeals from 1995 to 1998. He was always kind and friendly and devoted to his work. I wish I could have visited with him in the last few years. I miss him and other friends at the court. My condolences to his family. He was very devoted to them and spoke of them often when I knew him.
