    I am deeply saddened and will miss you greatly. I have so many memories of you to cherish throughout my childhood and adult life. Thoughts of you will bring smiles and laughter upon my face. I will always miss our phone conversations and all the jokes you would tell me that made me laugh so hard. I love you Uncle Hollis.

    Mrs. Brown & Family, I am sending my condolences to you. Thank you for allowing Mr. Hollis to join our small family here at Pathways Adult Day Health Care. “Mr. Hollis” as we called him will truly be missed by all. His dancing to Comodores “Brick House” is our fondest memory of him, along with his whistling like a bird in the spring. May God be with you and the family.
