John Holcomb was such a dear man. I'm glad that our paths crossed three years ago when my family moved to Jonesboro with a job transfer. We visited Nettleton Baptist and he made me and my family feel very welcome. God bless all who are affected by this great loss. I count it an honor to have known him if only for a short time.
Can't wait to see you again, get the music going and Angels dancing. You well and are being missed
John was a great man who I had the pleasure of working with while he lived in Florida. God bless his family.
RIP!
Much love Brother. It has been a joy for our family to call you friend. I will miss our jam sessions on the porch till we meet again in Glory.
Not too many people in this world today really know how to be a friend, but you did. I pray you know just how much my family loved you.
Rest in peace dear friend. LU
