To Larry’s family, I offer my deepest sympathies.
To Larry, my friend and Patriot Guard Brother: I love you, and I will miss you. Rest in peace my friend, your mission is complete.
Many people pass through our lives everyday and often we meet those special ones that touch our hearts in so many ways. Larry was that kind of man! As a Vietnam Veteran and a fellow Patriot Guard Rider the compassion that he showed for those that where lost and their families was profound and left an enduring mark in my memory. God Bless the family and know that Larry will be a part of my memories for the remainder of my life. It has been my honor and privilege to have known him.
Heidi & family,
We are so deeply sorry for your loss. Please know that we are holding you up in love and prayer. God’s grace is good and we pray He will comfort you now and in the days to come.
I share your heartbreak in losing a loved one because I just lost my Dad at 7 Am this morning. Praise the Lord, they are both at peace with our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ right now. Finally they have REAL PEACE! I am so thankful for God’s Amazing Grace! I love you and may God bless each one of you!
Coach Brookshire remembers Larry as a fine young man and a good football player, A leader and co-captain. We were saddened to read of his death and wish to express our condolences to his family. You will be in our thoughts and prayers. May God bless you. Cliff and Nancy Brookshire
My condolences to the family of Larry. I met Larry on one of our many Patriot Guard Rides. He was a man of vast knowledge and keen foresight. I could sit and listen to him for hours and learn volumes. I immediately befriended Larry as he had a gentle spirit that I identified quickly. He spent many hours in honor of our Veterans at funerals, welcoming home parade rides, and helping people out he didn’t know. He would take vacation time and ride hundreds of miles to stand in line for hours to support our fallen heroes. This is the type of man Larry was. I feel honored just to have known him. Larry and I rolled many miles together and I will miss him dearly. Rest easy my brother and I’ll see you again soon.
Larry,
Rest in Peace my brother, your mission here on earth is accomplished. You will NEVER BE FORGOTTEN. We shall meet again, in the winds of Heaven. May your family find comfort and peace knowing we shall all meet again. You will remain alive in our memories.

I was saddened to hear of Larrys death. He meant so much to my family when he pastored at Sycamore Baptist Church. He lead my daughter Angie to Christ. I know Brody, Heidi and Brandon that you probably don’t remember a lot about the years that you spent at Sycamore but your family was very special and did much good for our church.

Dear family:
So sorry to hear of Larry’s passing. Please know that each of you are in our thoughts and prayers during this very difficult time.
We offer our sincerest condolences on the passing of Larry, we knew him when he was a young boy at Pleasant Balsam Baptist Church in the Saunook Community of Haywood County.
My heart breaks for each of you. Larry was a very special, dear friend, whom I will never forget. I will miss him just showing up at my door and saying, ‘Hop on, let’s go for a ride. It’s too beautiful to be inside!’ He was a man with a great heart and loved his family very deeply. He was a true friend! I will miss you, Larry!
We were so sorry to hear about Larry. He was one of the strongest men in Christ that we have ever known. He always had a smile on his face and there was no doubt thathe loved life and everything about it. Our thoughts and prayers are with all of you and we will miss Larry greatly.
I am so sorry for your loss. We will all miss Larry it was rare for me to be around him and not laugh. He talked of his family often and loved all his children.
Our thoughts and prayers are with you! I only met Larry once, and that was when he married my dad and Ann…his inner energy was amazing! May God be with you and comfort you during this rough time!
Words cannot describe the love Larry gave others,some he never met.He will be missed,and the memories he gave us will be cherished forever. Truly he was an Angel among us. Your mission is complete.Your job was well done faithful servant.
Brody I was the same class with you at Temple I am so sorry for your family’s loss..
TO THE HOLLOWAY FAMILY, I HAVE FOND MEMORIES OF OUR FRIENDSHIP IN THE SAUNOOK COMMUNITY WHEN YOU FIRST MOVED TO HAYWOOD COUNTY. LARRY AND I WERE CLASSMATES AND GRADUATED TOGETHER FROM TUSCOLA HIGH SCHOOL. OUR PRAYERS ARE FOR EACH MEMBER OF THE FAMILY, THAT GOD WOULD COMFORT YOU IN YOUR TIME OF LOSS. GOD BLESS YOU ALL.
We thought alot of Larry. He was our pastor when we went to Crestview Baptist Church several years ago. He baptized Les in the river up there behind the church. Our prayers are with you all at this time. Sorry for the loss.
Larry was a great friend and wonderful spiritual leader. Larry help us through the difficult time of our daughters birth and heart surgery and I will never forget his unselfishness. Larry will be greatly missed. With all our love. The Wise family
Family, We love you. We know that the same grace of God that saved us, will sustain you during this time of sorrow.
Larry was one of the people who influenced the person that I have become. At a time when our family was falling apart and my life as a child was on track for disaster; Larry brought us back to the Lord and under his guidance I was saved, Amen. At that point in 1978 my life changed and the Lord took control and still leads my family today. Larrys caring visit to our home at that time began the Lords healing process that will impact the Stanberry family for generations.
As an adult Larry married Jill and I. Larry taught us as our pastor and challenged us to live for Christ.
We will always cherish the memories we have of time with your family. Going to church, playing cards, having meals and the fellowship. We learned that it can be fun to be a Christain.
Thank you God for giving us Larry, if only for a time.
Until we meet again my Brother,
NOT A DAY GOES BY WHERE I DON’T THINK OF YOU AND MISS YOU SO BAD! THANK YOU FOR BEING THE BEST DADDY ANYONE COULD EVER HAVE! I LOVE YOU SO MUCH AND WILL SEE YOU AGAIN SOMEDAY!! I KEEP YOUR MEMORY ALIVE FOR THE KIDS AND WE TALK ABOUT YOU OFTEN! WHEN I GET TO MISSING YOU AND START TO CRY LITTLE WESLEY COMFORTS ME AND SAYS HE IS OK HE IS IN HEAVEN MOMMY! I TELL KINSTON STORIES ALSO ABOUT HER PAPAW!! CHRISTMAS IS ALMOST HERE AND YET YOU ARE SPENDING ANOTHER YEAR IN HEAVEN!! CAN’T WAIT TO SEE AND YOU HOLD ME AGAIN SOON! LOVE YOU DADDY!
My deepest condolences and sympathy go out to Larry’s family and loved ones. Larry was a brother in the PGR. He stood with pride and honor for our Fallen Heroes and in return we will stand for him.
Larry, your mission is complete. I will see you at the gates when the Lord decides its time to call me home. Until that time, pegs down, Brother.

I knew Larry from the YMCA 5:30am crowd. He was friendly and kind. We have missed seeing him working out among us. Many expressed shock and sadness at his passing. I would get a smile noticing he often got his coffee BEFORE he even started working out. He will be missed by all those he touched. May your memories and faith comfort you.
I’m so sorry for your loss-my thoughts and prayers are with all of you. I have good memories of Larry.
Love you, Tanya

We use to hangout together and he would tell me…let’s go for a ride…’hop on’ I will cherish those memories forever.Larry will be greatly missed.I will hold him in my heart forever.God bless you all.
It is difficult to say the right words to express my sympathy and shock. Larry and I shared many conversations in Kiwanis, at meetings, etc. May we all have the blessing of Christ to know we will be together again.
We were so sorry to hear Larry’s passing. He was very special to us. He led Roger to the Lord. He was so faithful to visit when you were sick. We will never forget he drove all the way to Duke hospital when Laura had eye surgery. We are blessed to have known him. There is no doubt he is in heaven with Jesus. We love Larry and all of his family.
Dear Holloway Family,May the Lord bless you in a special way during these days. Pat And I came to know Jesus under the leadership of Larrys Dad,brother Virgil.Larry and I were able to later Pastor together.I praise the Lord for being able to be a part of this family over the years.Thank God for Larrys salvation in The Lord Jesus.
I can’t tell you how shocked I was to learn of Larry’s death. Larry was a regular at the gym, always a smile, always upbeat, always a cheerful word, always made me feel better about things. An all around solid guy. A good human being who we’ll all miss terribly.
I’m very sorry to hear of the sudden passing of Larry and he will be greatly missed. I like Larry also supported many worthy causes through our mutual love of motorcycles and his presence will be missed.
Sincerely,

We were so sorry to hear of Larry’s passing. He was kind, gentle and always there especially during illnesses. I remember he came home from his vacation to be with us during Joe’s heart catheterization in 1988. He was also there for us in 1992 when Joe was again ill. We have much love in our hearts for your family. Our thoughts and prayers are with you during this time of great sorrow.
We are friends of Dale Henry, cousin of Mr. Holloway. The family is in our thoughts and prayers.
To the Holloway family-
I was shocked and saddened to hear of the sudden passing of Larry. I got to know Larry during the early morning bleary eyed times at the YMCA. He was one of the people you truly looked forward to seeing at 5:30 AM and when he skipped a day, everyone missed him.
Gods peace.
Dear Family,
We are so sorry to hear about the loss of Larry. We pray that God will comfort and hold you during this time and the days that will follow. Larry was very special to me and I know that it is because he was the first pastor in my life, and for what he stood for.

Larry was a great guy and will be sorely missed. My condolences to the family.
Even though we are unable to attend, we want you to know you are all in our thoughts and prayers. Larry was a special person and will certainly be missed. May God watch over each of you and give you peace.
Holloway family, We were all wondering where Larry was this morning at the Gym. I came to work and read the paper and found out. I’m still in shock, He had called me last week while I was on a mission trip in Gulfport Mississippi to ask me about the Bluegrass Concert he wanted to make sure he got tickets this year. He gave me some encouraging words while I was down there. We also had breakfast at 5 points every friday. He will surely be missed. Please accept my sincere sympathy for the loss of your loved one and my friend.
You and your family are in our prayers. Your father was our insurance agent and a friend of our family, while we lived in North Carolina. We are sorry to hear of his death.
We just want to express our sympathy and let you know that we are praying for all of you. Larry will be greatly missed by all who knew him and loved him.

Jean Peeler Word
To all the family.. my sympathies on the loss of Larry. I was shocked to read of his death. Remember many messages I heard him preach..at Pleasant Balsam and at Crestview. I remember one day seeing him visiting in Haywood Regional Medical Center and spoke to him. As the conversation progressed.. he began to realize how discouraged I was about things and he led me to chapel where he prayed with me. I wont ever forget that prayer. May God hold all of you in HIS hands at this time. My thoughts and prayers are with you.
To Brody, Hedi, Brandon, Gini, and Crystal.
I send my thoughts and prayers to you all during this trying time. I know what it’s like to lose a parent and I just wanted to let you all know I am thinking of you during this difficult time. If you are in need of anything do not be afraid to ask.
My deepest condolences,
Ashley Baldwin (Hannah’s friend)
To the Holloway family,
My heart goes out to each and everyone of you. Larry was a very special person. I had the pleasure of meeting and getting to know him while Brody played basketball at Enka High School. May God Bless You and Keep You during these difficult times. My comfort is that he is in heaven with Jesus Christ and there is no more pain or suffering. His body has been made whole again. God Bless You All!! Your family will be in my thoughts and prayers.
Love in Christ,

HAPPY FATHER’S DAY DAD!! I LOVE YOU AND MISS YOU!!! Hard day to try and celebrate without my FATHER!!
Larry led me to the Lord when I was 12 years old at Sycamore Baptist Church. I will always be thankful to the Lord that I was blessed to have known Larry and his family. He will be missed.
Dear Holloway Family,
I was deeply saddened when I received the call about Larry passing. I have many memories growing up around your family and feeling much like part of the Holloway family. Your family has always played major roles in my Christian Life being a part of my Baptism, Marriage and Ordination into the ministry. Your family is very special to me. I have great memories of Larry as my Friend, Pastor, Sheriffs Department Chaplin and many times through my early years encouraging me to sell out and live for Jesus. Melissa and I want you to know you are all in our thoughts and prayers. May God watch over each of you and meet every need you have during this difficult time.
Larry was truly God sent! When our family was at it’s very lowest, he came and visited us and invited us to church. (Sycamore Baptist)
We accepted his invitation and weeks later, my husband and I both received the Lord as Savior. Our lives changed forever, thanks to Larry’s desire to serve the Lord. We look forward to seeing him in heaven.
To the Holloway Family: Please accept my sincere condolences. My prayer is that the dear Lord will be with you at this time and in the days to come.
Dear Family,
I truly am at a loss of where to begin.
There are so many memories, and wonderful times that we’ve shared. I can’t begin to express the special place you all and Larry had and will always have in my heart. Larry has meant so much to me and the whole Stanberry and Propest’s families.
Larry was so much more than our pastor, he was our family and our friend. His guidance, messages and prayers are things I have never or will ever forget. Larry taught me so many things. He touched so many lives. I am so thankful to have had him in mine.
Please know that you are all in my thoughts and prayers. May our Lord give you the strength, comfort and peace that only He can provide.
Much love and prayers,
Vonda
Even though we can’t attend, your family is in our thoughts and prayers. Since dad’s death I’ve learned that the loss of a loved one is not alright but something you will get through with all of the thoughts and memories that the family shared with Larry. We will continue to pray for all of you knowing as time passes you will look back and laugh at the funny memories and cry because Larry is no longer with you. Stick together and as a family you will get through this.
Love,
Gail, Lonnie, Chrissy, Adrian and Amber and granddaughter Casidee
When I got the word of Larry’s death it was like loosing family. Larry was not only my brother in Christ, he was my Pastor and my friend. Larry gave direction when I was in great need.

We spent many hours with you all and the memories are precious times that I thank God for. May God continue to use Larry thru the many people that he taught, and shared his life with. May God comfort you all as you go thru this time of loss. Larry and I,with a few other men were once on a mountian top for for a short period of time, someday we will do it again. May God bless you Larry my brother.

Uncle Virgil, Ann, Donna, and Audria,
My thoughts and prayers are with you all. Even though we have lost touch through the years, I treasure my childhood memories in North Carolina when my family would visit you. My Mom thought the world of Larry. The Lord keeps gathering wonderful angels in heaven. It is hard on earth without our love ones but he is an awesome God and gives us strength. Donna, I remember singing with you and having so much fun as young girls. I always wanted a sister and felt so alone after I lost my Mom. However, God doesn’t give us more than we can handle. He always has a plan. May you three embrace each other with support during this difficult time and be there for your Dad. He will need you tremendously. Love you all.
The Holloway Family,
I was truly saddened to learn of Larry’s passing. He was a great inspiration to me as an officer with the Buncombe County Sheriff’s
Department. He will be greatly missed by all who knew him. May
God Bless you and Keep you during this time of sadness.

Dear Gina,
I look at this often. I miss your dad. I know I did not keep in touch like I should have. But those last few weeks with him at the VA were special for me. I told him he would always be my pastor. He laughed. We had alot of good talks. He loved all you kids so much. I think if he could say anything to you it would be to press on and keep going toward the prize, Heaven. Van and mom miss him terribly. I know today is one year. I pray for all of you. I am here if you ever need me.. 734-8190.
please pray for Van. I think he misses him more than anyone knows.
Love you

I too have so many wonderful memories of spending time with your family. I’ll never forget those times that we all had together. I pray for God’s peace for each of you during this time. I’m so sorry for your loss.
Dear Family – we are praying for you during this time of loss. God is great and will extend to you the Grace you need, as you need it. Larry touched our lives and lead each of us to Christ,like so many other families in Western NC. The Lord used Larry as a wonderful pastor and teacher during the time we were babes in Christ. We’ll see him again soon and rejoice together in the presence of the Lord! Stay strong and look up!
My deepest sympathy to all of Larry’s family. I have fond memories of him bringing his family to Dixon’s Little Boy on Sunday’s after church, when the children were little.

Dear Holloway Family
How do you express your feelings for someone who meant so much to your family. He was more than our pastor. He was a friend always knew what to say and how to make you strive to be a better person. We will always have a special place in our hearts for each of you and all our great memories when you were at Cresview. God bless each of you your in our thoughts and prayers.
What a sad and difficult time you all must be having. My prayer is that God will wrap you all in His arms and give peace that only He can give. What a blessing Larry was to all who knew him. And what a gift he had for sharing the word of God with others. I know he will be missed but take comfort in knowing that today he is walking the streets of Glory with the one who died for him. What a day that will be! My thoughts and prayers are with each of you! He will meet you all again someday at the gates of pearl! Hold fast to the memories and to the hope that one day you will be reunited! God bless each of you!
I have only fond memories of Larry and his family from over 20 years ago when he was our neighbor and pastor at Crestview. I know he touched many lives in very positive ways and his loss will be felt throughout several communities. Our prayers are with his family.
Brody, Heidi and Bam Bam,
I have been reminiscing in my mind about all the fun we had when we were growing up at Crestview. We had lots of good times together and we also had lots of memorable occasions we could conjour again, but the one thing I do remember about my childhood was having your dad playing a part in my life and what a tremendous impact he had on me. He was a loving dad, a gentle man, was strong in his discipline with us (lol) but very strong in his love for his family and those he was close to. I felt close to your dad and admired him very much. Just last week he yelled at me across the campus at PHS, ‘Hey Michael my friend.’ Many years have passed but it seems as though yesterday I would see him in the yard with the three of you, making each of you a part of his life. Many roads have been traveled since that time, but his love for each of you continued as he made his way to special events, like Heidi, when you married Mike.
Brody, the wonderful work you continue to carry on in Andrews. Gina, When you married Wes.
Bam Bam, your commitment to the athletics dept at PHS. I could continue to share these observations with you, but you already know them. I just want you to know how much your dad meant to me as well as his love being visible and evident for each one of you. Now it is your time to carry on as he would want us to and carry his love with you each and every day. You all have characteristics of your mom and dad and you are richly blessed by their love and commitment to each of you. I love you with a very special part of my heart. May each of you have strength, peace and integrity in the days to come.
I can hear him say ‘Carry on Folks, don’t let me interupt.’
Much love to each of you during this time~~~ Michael Conard
I was so sorry to hear of your loss.I didn’t know Larry that well but I do know that Freedom Baptist Church loved him.May God Bless All of you at this time.
Holloway Family-
My thoughts and prayers are with you during this unexpected loss. Larry impacted so many lives and he will be missed by so many people who were uplifted by his words and smile. Heidi, Brody, Brandon, Gina and Crystal … don’t mourn, but find joy in the fact that your father was a man of deep integrity and your loss is shared by the entire community of people who Larry touched on a daily basis.
I am sorry to hear of your loss. I am sorry that I can not attend services for the man who brought me to Christ. It was the best to hear that booming voice coming from the pulpit on Sundays at NMH. I was in Church Sunday in Raleigh thinking how I missed his message and voice. I was also thinking of the ol’ timey day when I was Baptized by Larry, (wishing I still could fit in my overalls). Thank all of you for your support of my walk and if I can assist in some way, please get in touch.
My thoughts and prayers are with you all. I have so many fond memories or growing up with you all. I will never forget Larry as he was my pastor for much of my childhood and he baptized me. I know we will see him again one day in Heaven! Love you all.
To Larry’s Loved Ones,
We are so sorry for Larry’s untimely leaving this earth but we know where he is and will see him again on that I am sure. May God’s presence be felt by you at this time and remember you can or will be able to see him again. Love-Ken and Wanda Weatherman
I worked for many years with Mutual Of Omaha and was blessed by having known Larry on a professional as well as a personal basis and am proud to have known him and he blessed my life in many ways as well. He will be sorely missed but is in his final resting place above us now.
May God give your family grace and peace in this time of loss. Larry’s in God’s presence and receiving his much deserved rewards. Heaven just received another gaurdian angel.
Beth called and told me of Larry’s passing. May God hold each of you up and be with you during this time of loss. During your grief, just remember that I’m sure Margaret was there to welcome him home.
Love in Christ,
Jeff
Larry
I will miss you very much
I never imagined you not being here. You were always there when I needed you .
I love you, You will always be in my heart. Thank you for being you and Thank you for being apart of my life..

Larry, Thank you for loving me, for being my eyes when I could not see, for parting my lips when I could not breath. Thank you for loving me. I never knew I had a dream, til that dream was you, when I looked into your eyes the sky was a different blue. You picked me up me up when I fell down. You rang the bell before they counted me out. When I could’nt fly you gave me wings. Thank you for loving me!! (FOREVER) MY LOVE!! MY HEART, MY BEST FRIEND!! I miss you more everyday!!
To the Holloway Family My deepest sympathy. We will missed Larry we loved him very much. My prayers are with you all. In christ with love Jeneil Ray and Family
Our hearts hurt as we heard of the passing of Larry. We hold so many fond memories of times spent together as families. We extend our prayers to you and pray for God’s peace and strength at this time.
I only met Larry once during the funeral visitation for Anthony Cogdill. Larry seemed like a very good man and I know he was well loved by his family. Heidi, you know where your daddy is right now because he was a christian man!!
In the late eighties, I was a volunteer chaplain at the Sheriff’s Dept. where I worked with Ray Woodby and Larry Holloway.
We are so sorry to hear of his passing but not sorry that he belonged to the Lord and is with Him! We praise the Lord you have this comfort. And praise the Lord too that He understands and knows everything. One day we will all be together with the Lord for all eternity.
May the Lord’s Spirit comfort you and keep you especially during this time.
In Christ’s Love,
Sue Gaither
From the many trips to and from App State, the study sessions, being present at the birth of Brody to teaching Larry’s children at Enka – I’ll treasure the friendship of my brother in Christ! Please know that each of you are in my thoughts and prayers!
In His Love,
I know there are a lot of tears and anguish right now….but I can only smile when I think about the scene in Heaven. I bet Larry and Mark are having a ball! And I hope that you can imagine that too, and remember them both with a smile. What great guys they both were.
I love you all,
Colleen Thompson (and Justin & Austin)
I am so sorry to hear of your loss! I hope God gives you peace as you mourn the loss of your dad. I’ll be praying for all of you.

I miss you daddy!! I love you with ALL of my heart and i mean all of it!! Can’t wait till we meet again!!
Our sympathy to all Larry’s family. Our thoughts and prayers are with you.
To all of you-We hope all of you know what you mean to us! We love you so much and we are grieving with you. Your daddy and mother raised you to be the Christians you are today and I pray for peace for each of you, in knowing that you will all be together again in the presence of of the Almighty Savior! May God comfort and sustain you until that time. We love you so much! Tre’, Shannon & Will
We are sorry for the loss of your father. May God be with all of you during your time of grief and give you peace in knowing that he is walking streets of gold.
Dear Holloway Family,
I can’t begin to tell you the enormous positive impact that Larry had on me as a young person at Crestview. He was used of God to touch and minister to so many people. I will miss him dearly, but find comfort that he no longer has to imagine but is standing in the presence of our Almighty God. Larry married my husband, Brooks, and I in 1986 which will always be special, but his encouragement, time and tenderness as my pastor has left a handprint on my heart forever. I know that God will comfort you all because His word assures us of his desire to care for His children. I am praying that even in your sadness that God will be glorified.
Dear Family, I was pleased to meet Larry one final time during our recent furlough, in order to thank him for the ways he touched my life. Larry’s zeal for sharing the gospel was infectious to me as a young adult. He enjoyed sharing the gospel with everyone he came in contact with. Because of Larry’s example and investment in teaching me how to lead people to Christ, I’m now sharing Christ’s glorious gospel with the people of Indonesia. I grieve with you because of Larry’s death, but rejoice with you that God used him to impact each of our lives.
Holloway Family:
Van and I will never have another friend like Larry. Our grief is still deep and very painful. Whenever I hear the big cycles on the main road I still expect him to come roaring into the driveway with a big smile and a hug to match. We are praying for each of you and trust God our Father to heal your hearts as we also wait for our hearts to heal. I know we will see him in heaven but for now our hearts still ache.
If tears could build a stairway
And memories were a lane
I would walk right up to heaven
And bring you back again
No farewell words were spoken
No time to say goodbye
You were gone before we knew it
And only God knows why
Our hearts still ache in sadness
And secret tears still flow
What it meant to lose you
No one can ever know
But now we know you want us
To mourn for you no more
To remember all the happy times
Life still has much in store
Since you’ll never be forgotten
I pledge to you today
A hallowed place within our hearts
Is where you’ll always stay!
I LOVE YOU DADDY and MISS YOU!!
HAPPY EASTER DADDY!! I MISS YOU and LOVE YOU!! Can’t wait to see you againg!!
Please know how sorry I am about Larry’s passing. He graduated 2 years bofore me from Tuscola. He and my brother, Steve Turner were on the same wrestling team, and I think they went to the finals together–I thought the world of Larry–I actually saw him around over the years from time to time and he was always the same–please accept my heartfelt sympathy. Larry has a wonderful family.
Dear Donna, Audria & Family,
Please know that our prayers are with you in your grief.
I’ve learned that Goodbyes
will always hurt,
pictures never replace
having been there,
memories good or bad
will bring tears,
and words can never
replace those feelings!!
The last goodbye is
the hardest one to say.
I dont want to say goodbye because I know we will see each other again some day soon!!
When I feel alone I will just look at the spaces between my fingers and remember thats where yours fit perfectly daddy!! I LOVE YOU!!
Sorry about your loss.
We are sorry for your loss. Please know that our thoughts, prayers and love are with all your family.
Joe Henry and I are so sorry about your loss. We KNOW that you have so many great memories of Larry as a son, father, and brother. Our prayers are with you all. May God comfort and strengthen you in the days ahead.
Dear Brandon, Heidi & family,
I am sorry for your loss. You guys are in our thoughts and prayers. I know your faith will get you thru the sad times and your faith gives you the comfort of knowing you will see your dad again! God Bless.
Pastor Jim and staff of North Asheville Baptist want to convey our condolences to your family.

Gina we pray for you and all of the family. Van and I miss Larry very much. I hold my breath every time a motorcycle goes by, I think ‘There’s Larry.’ Then the truth sinks in again. We have so many wonderful memories of him. The last day he came to the hospital he told us of how complete his was. he had no desire except to spend time with his children. he said he was in the best place he had ever been in. He was right with God. He said he might remarry someday but it was a long time off.He was entirely focused on his children. He truly loved all of you. May God’s peace rule your heart.
I was a friend of Larrys’ from Waynesville. I am really sorry and he will be missed dearly. He is in God’s hands now and will be taken care of. To the family i say i am truly sorry for your lose. Kathy Summey

I was never so shocked to see that Larry had passed. I got to know him at a revial at Yadkin Baptist Church. He was a great man of God. I remember the visit to Canton and when he relocated to another church.That is where I took my wife to meet him and Ms Vickie. I remember the visit to Maggie Valley and he came to Three Pines Motel and we all went to eat breakfast. Oh what memories. When my wife Vickie Grubb Rogers passed in May 29 1999 he came to Salisbury N.C for the visit and to be there for my family. You all are special. Another fond memory I have is going to Canton and taking a $2.00 bill for Brandon Brody and Hedi. I did not get to meet the other girls. Ms.Vickie I wish you the best.To the Holloway family you lost your dad and friend. I was trying to locate him and learned of his passing this 4.16.2023. I am in shock but I know that he is with his Lord.
