William (Bill) Holloway, 92, passed away Tuesday, January 12, 2021, at Guest Home Estates, in Garnett, Kansas. He was born May 14, 1928 in Washington, Kansas, the son of Milton and Elta (McCulley) Holloway.

He married Betty Garrison and had two daughters, Denise and Gail. During those years, he dairied, farmed, had limousin cattle, and later worked as a surge dairy repairman. When family came to town to visit, they always came out to the farm. It holds many special memories for family. He and Betty divorced and he moved to Louisiana where he started a new chapter of his life.

He was always an adventurer and a bit of a rebel. As a child he had his own trap line taking his furs on a bus to the city to sell then joining the navy at an early age to hopping freights, breaking horses, hiking in Colorado with nephews and hunting and fishing with nephews, fishing in Cancun and Canada, camping in the desert, gardening, growing muscadine and making wine and his fabulous walking sticks.
