Mrs. Fannie L. Holman, widow of the late Col. D. W. Holman, died at 5:10 o'clock Friday morning, November 23, 1923, in Nashville, at the home of her daughter, Mrs. William Newman. There never lived in Fayetteville a woman of a more benign influence. She was a blessing and a benediction to every one with whom she was acquainted. Being of deeply religious nature, she reared her children with the highest ideas of citizenship and the high places which all of them occupy in the esteem of their fellow citizens is due to the principles which they learned at their mother's knee. For years she was a member of the Missionary Baptist Church and that denomination did not have a more tireless worker and more liberal contributor. Her faith never questioned, she was faithful to the end and now her glorified spirit is stepping from cloud to cloud of glory. The remains were brought to Fayetteville and after the funeral service Saturday morning by Rev. E. L. Cole at the residence of her son, Mr. J. W. Holman, were laid by reverent hands in Rose Hill Cemetery to await the resurrection. She is survived by one daughter, Mrs. William Newman, and five sons, Roy L. Holman and Jake D. Holman, both of Los Angeles, California, Col. Harry T. Holman of Memphis, James W. Holman of Fayetteville, and Wilson Holman of Nashville; one sister, Mrs. J. T. Goodrich, and a brother, Mr. W. J. Landess.
