On Thursday, February 27th, my father, Ronald Holmes Jr, passed away from a self-inflicted gunshot wound to the temple at a hotel in North Carolina. This event has left my family absolutely shattered and reeling from this tragic event.

We are asking for support during this difficult time to help cover expenses while we get our affairs in order including the additional extraordinary expense associated with returning my father from his current location in North Carolina for the funeral and cremation which will cost in total about $10,000.

Despite having a complicated past and relationship with our father, he loved us and we loved him. The absence of his larger than life personality will not go unnoticed.

He is survived by his father, Ronald Holmes Sr (79), his wife, Nancy Holmes (47), and his 7 children - Courtland Riddle (28), Ronald Holmes III (26), Dustin Holmes (24), Austin Holmes (20), Dallas (18), Brady (16), & Savannah (15).
