Add A Condolence

My deepest sympathy for the family of Phillip. He, Steve and I were classmates at West Street and good friends since Jimmie Williams, Tampa FL

To the Holloway Family, I would like to take this time to Thank Big Man as I have known him back in the day as someone who had a big heart. I remember as young Marine going to his club { The Safari} back in the 70 s . He was like a big brother who look out for us. There were times he would open up early so we would have somewhere to go. We talked the last time I was in NC and it was good to see him. May God Bless your family and May Big Man rest in peace. Joseph H Heckstall Sr {Joe Slick}
