I was shocked and saddened to learn of the death of my brother Boyd “Tony” Holliman
I will cherish the memories I have of Tony. I remember the meeting Ton, for the first time at our father’s Russell Holliman Sr. house you didn’t grow up together I think I was 50yrs old so Tony would have been 43 or 44yrs of age that night changed my life I had a brother from that point on we would text talk Instagram just learning about each other, the things we learned some good some bad but we were brothers we spoke of his wife who he loved alot and the kids we spoke of my girlfriend who wanted us to link up and stay close
I can’t imagine the sense of loss you feel right now. I will treasure my memories of Tony, we here in my home share in your loss
Although I’m not with you physically please know that you all are in my thoughts during this difficult time

Hey This Sierra give me a call 380-213-5311
It is with deep sadness that I leave my condolences. I had the pleasure of working with Boyd Holliman for about 5 yrs. We develop a close friendship through the years. When I was contacted I was hoping it wasn’t true. But after seeing this i now know its confirmed. Gone way to soon. But one thing I do know. He’s too Holy to be wrong & to just to make a mistake. God knows best it just hurts. Rest in God’s love Boyd my friend!
Boyd: was not only a coworker he was also a friend. His humor made you laugh. We would tease each other about ordering breakfast at Bob Evans. His light and touching of lives will be missed. My thoughts and prayers are with you during this time. May you cherish and hold on to those memories. And know with faith you will see him again.
To Boyd Bowman and family,
You have my most sincere and deepest condolences. May Gods comfort the family and encompasses you with hie tender Mercy and Grace. My Jesus sustain the family and give you all the strength to fight the battle of losing such a sweet guy… He will be missed by everyone

To the Holliman family,
Peace I offer to you in this trying time. May mercy and grace follow, and help you through one of the difficult times in anyone life. Tony, I and my mother, had nothing but the highest respect for you, not just as my son-in law, but as a true friend, you were always there for my mother. She loved you like a son. I will never forget you, you have gone on to be with your maker, but that means nothing to me, I will always think kindly of you. Siera and the grandsons will miss you. Nova asked about you on several occasions. Where’s Grandpa?
My God offer and give comfort to the family and many of the friends of the Holliman family.
And Know This God Is Good, he’ll see you through anything.
