Mr. Don Wayne Holloway, a resident of Ozark, died Saturday, August 28, 2021, in Flowers Hospital.  He was 74 years old.

A private interment will be in Center Ridge Baptist Church Cemetery at a later date, Holman Funeral Home and Cremations of Ozark directing.  The family will receive friends Wednesday in the church from 9:30 A.M. until service time.

Mr. Holloway was born September 26, 1946 to the late Leonard and Dola Mitchell Holloway, and was life-long resident of Dale County.  He loved the Lord and the Church and was an active, faithful member of the Ozark Church of Christ where he served as an Elder for several years, as well as other leadership roles. He loved his family and loved nothing better than spending time with his children and grandchildren teaching them the art of fishing.  He was preceded in death by his two best fishing partners, David Andrews and Tommy Shipman.  In his younger years, he was a youth baseball coach and later spent many hours attending his grandchildren’s baseball games, softball games and other sporting activities.  He loved his country and was a full-time technician with the Alabama Air National Guard with a career that spanned over forty years (May 1966-September 2006). He was a good neighbor who was always willing to lend a helping hand.  He will be greatly missed by all. In addition to his parents, he was preceded in death by two brothers-in-law, John David Andrews and Jackey Harpe.
