Obituary
ROBERT D. HOLMES
Robert (Robb) D. Holmes, 46, of LeSage, WV passed from this earth into the loving arms of God on September 1, 2013. Robb was born on December 28, 1966 in Welch, WV. He was a graduate of Barboursville High School and attended Valley Forge Christian College, Jimmy Swaggart Bible College, and Marshall University with a focus on pastoral studies and English (Secondary Education). Robb was a loving, compassionate person known by his friends as “Pastor Robb.” His life’s mission was to help hurting and rejected people, and he took the time to listen and offer words of wisdom and love to everyone he met. His infectious sense of humor brought smiles to everyone who was blessed to encounter him. Robb is survived by his daughter, Mashayla Holmes of Huntington – the “joy of his life;” parents Linda and Freddy Ryder, of Lesage; and Robert Holmes of Maryland; siblings, Jennifer (husband, Kenneth) McComas of Glenwood and Scott (wife, Michelle) Ryder of LeSage; grandmother, Rita Holmes of Maryland; and several aunts, uncles, cousins, nieces, and nephews whom he loved dearly. A warm thank you respected friends, officiant, Reverend Scott Graham and Larry Skeens. We take comfort in knowing Robb is now with his heavenly Father, rejoicing with the rest of his family. We look forward to the day we see you again. Rob’s Rules for today... #1. Stay in the "now," not the illusory past or future. #2. Maintain a connection to G.O.D.: Good Orderly Direction. -- Thank you. You may now proceed. ~ Robb Holmes. Funeral services will be conducted at 12:00 noon on Friday, September 6, 2013 at Henson & Kitchen Mortuary, Barboursville, WV. Burial will follow in White Chapel Memorial Gardens, Barboursville. The family will receive friends from 6-9 PM on Thursday, September 5, 2013 at Henson & Kitchen Mortuary, Barboursville, WV.
