We're so sorry you are mourning the loss of your dear loved one. Not much can soothe the pain this sorrow brings, but we hope the words of Psalms 34:18 can help some. It reads: âJehovah is close to the brokenhearted; He saves those who are crushed in spirit.â We can rely on our loving God to provide comfort in these troublesome times. He also has made the Surprise of a resurrection RIGHT HERE ON EARTH when it is restored into a beautiful paradise! (Acts 24:15; Psalms 37:9-11, 29). This is Sure to come because everything God says, he does without fail (Isaiah 55:11). Find out more about this resurrection online at JW.ORG

Reverend Holloway was a true man of God. His quiet and gentle demeanor will certainly be missed. When my parents had their restaurant, he would always stop in whenever he was in town. Whether if it was to eat or to just say hello. Every time I would see him, he would talk about how he knew my family well. God blessed him with 91 years of life. In my college years, I met his son Mr. Algin at North Carolina Central University. His spirit is just like his dads. Now in my professional years in funeral service, I have grown to learn one of the other sons, Mr. Kenny (the family comedian) and grandson Chris. Just as their father and grandfather, they always call me 'Bro. Harris'. To say he will be missed is an understatement, but I am confident in knowing that he is at peace and resting from his labor. May God continue to bless and keep you all. The Harris Family

Your father was not just the patriarch of the Holloway Family, he was known as 'Daddy Ralph' to many. He will be missed for his keen sense of humor and his zest for life that kept him young at heart.

Sorry for your loss. Rev. Holloway was a mentor for me and so many others like me in ministry who deeply appreciate his encouragement and support. He freely shared his pastoral experiences that will remain with me as golden nuggets of wisdom. His legacy of sharing, caring, and nurturing is well established and is lasting. May He rest in peace and may Our Lord bring comfort to the Holloway family.
- Rev. Joyce Daye Clayton

God will sustain you with his 'right hand of righteousness' during this difficult time and through each passing day. Isaiah 41:10 says: 'Do not be afraid, for I am with you. Do not be anxious, for I am your God. I will fortify you, yes, I will help you, I will really hold on to you with my right hand of righteousness'. Isaiah 41:13; I 'am grasping your right hand, the One (God) saying to you,...'I will help you''. Please accept my sincere condolences. Always remember God loves you and he cares for you! (Psalm 36:7; 1 Peter 5:7)
