Honoring Charles Albert Holling

We are asking for help to honor the life of our beloved father, Charles Albert Holling, a proud Vietnam veteran who served in 1967, a devoted husband to Celia Holling, and a loving father to his three sons, Charles II, Christopher, and Craig.

Our dad was a man of strength, love, and perseverance. He dedicated his life to his family and carried himself with the quiet courage of someone who had already given so much in service to his country.

In a very short span of time, our father experienced unimaginable heartbreak. He lost his beloved wife, Celia, and his oldest son, both to cancer, within months of each other. Those losses deeply impacted him, and soon after, he suffered a stroke that changed his everyday life. Over the following three years, his health continued to decline. Even after enduring another stroke and facing additional medical complications, he continued to fight with all the strength he had.

On April 27, 2026, our dad, Charles Albert Holling, passed on to be reunited in heaven with his wife and son.

At this difficult time, we are humbly asking for any heartfelt donations to help cover the costs of our father’s funeral and memorial services. Any amount, no matter how small, would mean so much to our family and help us give him the respectful farewell he deserves.

We sincerely thank you for your prayers, kindness, support, and any donation you are able to give.
