I met Mr Hollowell while working. He and I spent many an afternoon talking about so many things but mostly about our favorite pastime. The fishing stories he told. I loved Mr Latham and I will greatly miss having him in my life.
With deepest and most heartfelt sympathy, I extend my sincere gratitude for having had the privilege of knowing you, Mr. Hollowell, within the funeral profession. Your unwavering willingness to share your professional knowledge, guidance, and experience was truly admirable and greatly appreciated. Your legacy of dedication and service will not be forgotten. May you rest peacefully in eternal paradise."
I'm sure this is a tremendous loss for his family. Latham had a way of making everyone around him feel glad to be alive. I first met Latham in 1982, while we both worked for the Carnation Company. We became friends when I became part of the Memphis group. Respectfully
Lifting the family up in prayer.
It was such a joy learning from Mr. Hollowell when I started in the funeral home work. He was so wise and full of knowledge about professional service and he would also encourage me to watch and learn, always. Thank you Mr. Hollowell from sharing a part of you with all of us.

Dear Hollowell Family
I had the pleasure of working with the one and only Latham Hollowell as a young manager during my first stint with Carnation Co. Latham and that team taught me life lessons that i will never forget and cherish until my dying day. I laugh until i cry when i share or think about some of the adventures we had. He was truly a one of a kind legend in life and in the industry and will miss him. May God rest his soul and sending love to the family

Nathan was like a big brother to me he was best friends to all my brother o was the baby of the Spencer family he will truly be miss.
I have known Latham for many years. He wss a frequent visitor at my home. He loved having conversations with my daughter (Candra)He and my former husband hunted and fished together. They always bragged on caught the most. He will be missed.
It was with great sadness that I learned about Mr. Hollowell's passing. He was the friendliest guard that our subdivision has had. I remembered stopping to ask him if he had once been one of those folks who steer planes into and out of their airport parking places, as when I'd drive to our entry gate that he so attentively protected, he'd always wave me on with his signature airline motion.
I can't begin to imagine how much he will be missing by his family and close friends, as I know his friendly smile will be missed by me. He's one in a million!
My deepest sympathies to his family and friends.
I had the great privilege of working with Latham during his career with Carnation Co and Nestle. He was truly "one of a kind". His positive, upbeat personality was infectious. He was a GREAT salesperson! Literally, a top producer! He will be greatly missed!!
The world will be a little less bright without you my good friend. You were loved and you will be missed.
Our staff will continue to keep your family in our prayers. We thank you for allowing us to serve your family.
