Anthony Allen Holmes

Our beloved son, brother, uncle and best friend has gone home to be with our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. He died from complications of diabetes. He lived a full and enjoyable life. He loved to eat and smoke, which were his last wishes. Tony was born in Texarkana, Texas and graduated from high school there. He joined the United States Air Force in 1978 and served his country as a security specialist and was discharged in 1981. He is survived by three brothers Johnny Homes and family, Tracey Holmes and family, and Jeffery Homes and family of Texas; two sisters Pamela Holmes and family of New York and Patty Holmes and family of Texas. He is also survived by his Albuquerque family of thirty-six years Deborah Stone and family (his longtime companion), special niece Mok and many other nieces and nephews. Tony will be laid to rest on Thursday, September 3, 2015 at Santa Fe National Cemetery in Santa Fe, New Mexico. He will join his mother, father and older brother Rickey in Heaven. Tony, we will love and miss you! Arrangements entrusted to Riverside Funeral Home, 225 San Mateo NE, (505)764-9663.
