THE SIDNEY AND RUBY HOLMAN FAMILY

Patty, Sidney, Sid Sr., Ruby, Jerry, Linda, Larry, Connie, Randy

I'm not sure of the year, but I remember why this picture was taken.  This was the last time all of the family was to be together before Jerry shipped out for Vietnam.  We had enjoyed time together at Ruby and Sid's house and I wanted to get a picture of them all together before Jerry shipped out.


Sidney had already been to Vietnam during the years 1965 to1966 so it was extra hard to think about Jerry  going to be going to that dangerous place.  It was hard on Sidney to have to let his little brother go.  I'm sure John Huber felt the same way since he had already served his time in Vietnam also.


Jerry and Vicki were already married when he was sent into the war so again, it was extra hard on them.  Much prayer  was sent up for Jerry's safety and Vicki to have peace during that year.  God heard our prayers and sent Jerry home safely, for which we are grateful.


War is a terrible thing.  It has destroyed many lives and helped to save many others.  We are now praying for Neil Goff, Jennifer Holman's husband, to return from Iraq safely.  We have word that he will be returning toward the end of February, 2010.  Please keep him in your prayers.
