Born John Holloway, Rocktober 6th in Dallas, Texas. Lived 2 years on Travis AFB in California (near Oakland) from '68-'70 due to my dad being a Captain in the Air Force, starting his dental practice. In '71, moved to Azle, Texas where I grew up. Currently in Fort Worth, Texas, since '87. Tarrant County Deputy Sheriff-1986-1999, Texas Health System Public Safety Security Officer 2003-present. My passion (besides being a grandad) is music-classic rock, metal, blues, jazz...and the ocean (hoping to move to Corpus Christi, Texas in about 8 years). My grandkids, playing guitar and drums/percussion keeps me young at heart. Being a multi-instrumentalist myself, I don't know where I'd be without the innovations and inventions of Les Paul, Leo Fender (who never learned to play the guitar), Christian Frederic Martin and SCPO Seth Lover. Thank you, eternally, fellas... Also, I'm proud to be a Christian who believes there is a Heaven where my Landen waits for me. As a kid, I always asked my grandparents Katherine Holloway, Marion Loyd Holloway, B. Ozelle Scott and Eldon A. 'Scotty' Scott to stop and let me walk through cemeteries. I could spend the night in a cemetery and sleep comfy....Thank you for dropping by and leaving a touch of love for my Landen and others that rest in peace here...

Feel free to visit:

...my grandson, Landen and his grandpa, Pat...
...my dad, Landen's Pappy...
...my 1st cousin, Rocky...
...my tiny angel friends, Princess, Hannah, River and Sterling ... all taken by Mother Nature...

...my dear angel friends Valencia (Princess's grandmother), Ashley, Jovonie, Blake, his step mom, Chynna and Timmy (taken by someone he knew and loved). These precious lives were taken by cowardly, apathetic, anti-life thieves...(Visit Blake's memorial & read the story about Blake's balloons from his memorial service)...

...my lil angel friend, 'Bubba' (who rests about 13 feet from my Landen)...
...my karate student angel, Matthew...
...my fellow deputy angel, 'LT' ...
These lives were taken by god-forsaken accidents...

...my angel friends from another country: Harry, Radu, Salvatore, Karolina, Sergo...

...a big salute to a 3-war, US soldier, TSGT Raymond LaRue "Ray" Casey whose son, Mike Casey, created L's memorial. I am forever grateful for both of them...Also, in memory of Mike's daughter, Amy & his son, Jon...

...my love to Patricia who had to say goodbye to 3 sons, Luke, Mark & Danny...

...2 angels who have saved countless lives:
20 year-old Michael Stanley 'Mike' Carmen whose murder in Albuquerque, New Mexico on July 24, 1976 lead to the creation of 'Crime Stoppers'...and...
9 year old Amber Rene Hagerman whose murder in Arlington, Texas on Jan 15, 1996 lead to the creation of the 'Amber Alert'...I was a Tarrant County Sheriff Dept dispatcher that day when Arlington PD sent out a teletype on Amber as a missing person. I radioed my patrol deputies with the info as I did with every missing person case from our area. Had no idea of the emotions that would forever be in my mind when they found her body. I know Mike and Amber can rest in peace knowing they have saved others, especially children. I thank God that the deaths of Mike and Amber have not been in vain...

...3 angels that Mother Nature took from a mom and dad, Amanda, Riana & Logan Buddemeyer...

...4 angels that Mother Nature took from a mom and dad: meet Mattie who passed with a mitochondrial disease similar to my Landen's and the amazing things he did before Mother Nature took him AND his 2 brothers & sister...

...a victim of Mother Nature who had over 10 years of challenges and whose dad designed his special headstone, Matthew Robison...

...a very sweet angel, Nixzmary, gone, for taking a strawberry Jello Pudding Snack...

...meet Ella. Her death and new life has not been in vain. Be blessed by her story...

...In memory of Anita & her baby, Baby Lopez...

...4 bizarre stories in memory of Little Miss 1565, Miranda Eve, Bessie, JonBenet ...and how could anyone do such a thing to a lil angel like Jelli...

...In memory of my dear friend and Shotokan Karate Sensei for 41 years, since September 1980...Pete...
