[Dialogue] [Oe List ...] Death of Chris Holcombe

[Dawn Collins via Dialogue]

Hi LORD, it's me, Dawn come calling for the Word from you to voice the joyfilled sorrow of colleagues, Wanda and George Holcombe over the loss of their son, Chris. A compadre of my daughter Traci's generation--he stood out amidst the few in days of yesterday as a young man who brought a unique gift to the table of youthful aspirations accompanied with an emerging deep questioning of Life. He discovered like most of us that answers to those questions are oft revealed in the doing of a life.

I remember Chris for his youthful exuberance and key sober projections into the breach of existence found and embraced where new structures are created. We join with you, George and Wanda on the occasion for the mpending celebration of the full and completed life of your son, Chris. May your memories of him be they long or fleeting be filled with the sweet poignancy and profound love for the LORD who keeps Chris and all of us until that Day.

Grace & Peace,

Dawn Collins

 Death of Chris Holcombe  We lost our Son, Chris, Sunday to
 cancer. He was a grand human being, ask anyone who knew him
 and many of you did. Raised partially in a ghetto, in Asia,
 lived among Aboriginals in Australia. Studied Broadcasting
 out of High School. Dropped out of college twice. Learned
 trades, managed fast food restaurants. Self taught himself
 about computers and worked for several Hi Tech companies the
 last being Apple where he was employed throughout his
 illness. Had his own interview radio program on a local
 station. Was a photographer. SXSW being one of the events he
 shot, Had 2 sons and a granddaughter, and all this touches
 only the surface, and of course he was part of our
 community. Always one to lift the mood, be respectful and
 ask the next question. At his request, we will hold a
 Memorial Celebration of his life at the Wells Branch
 Community Center on Saturday, September 26. Thanks to
 everyone who have extended their condolences. We miss him
 deeply.George Holcombe
