Que saudade eu sinto de vocês, vou sempre me lembrar da pessoa maravilhosa que sempre foi, te amarei pra sempre.

so sorry to hear about david and his wife and grandson..i when to graham school when i frist met david.Had a big crush on him in school . i guess why i did was because he was a caring and loving man someone i look up to, after he stop me one day from hitting this girl in school that said something she was wrong to say... I will miss him but will see him again i know...GOD BLESS YOU ALL.. love connie stanley slaughter..

I will away remember you in my heart as a loving and caring man .

Sean and Jill and other family members, I would just like to send my prayers to you and tell you how much it hurt my heart to hear of your loss. David and Linda were like family to us at Mclean County back in 1979. They always showed their love with a bright smile and a pat on the back when it was needed. Coach Holland will stay with me forever, and I was able to use many of his methods in my own coaching career. You should be very proud of their lives on this earth, they touched so many in a positive way. God go with you!

Sean and Jill, I wanted to say to you that i loved your mother and father, and I will never forget how they treated me in High School. They were so nurturing and loving to everyone, and always had open arms for you. I also remember you guys running around as kids in the gym during practices, and it is fun to think of all the times we called you cha-cha Sean and how we used to carry you guys around and how much fun David had with that. I will cherish the memory of them for the rest of my life, and know it was an honor to have had them in my life, as well as them being a part of my teaching. I am so sorry that I could not make it to the funeral, but I will visit their gravesite and honor them. In closing, I would encourage you to be very proud, which i know you are, they were the greatest!

We certainly enjoyed the Holland family being our neighbors. Shawn & Jill, may God hold you in His loving arms. We're praying for you.

Shawn, I was in your class when you lived in McLean County. I was saddened to hear of your families great loss. I just wanted you to know that your family is in my prayers.

Dear Holland family - So sorry to hear of your loss. My thoughts and prayers are with you all. God bless.

I wish there was something I could say that would ease your pain, but I know there are no words... We are lifting your entire family in prayers.

I will always remember the good times we had at the school board conventions at the Galt House.We always ordered dessert,you would say"Ms Deb, what are we going to try?" When we would have snow days you would call me early so I wouldn't have to wake the kids up and say--"Ms. Deb ,throw another log on the fire." What a wonderful man he was, I will miss him so much.

David was a basketball player with my husband Forrest at Campbellsville College, and I was a cheerleader for the team. I remember David as being such a nice guy to everybody he met. He always had a good word to say and he was just a good friend. I remember he and Linda lived in the married housing section of campus with their little boy Shawn while we were there. I'll never forget David and his kindness. My prayers are with Shawn and Jill and the entire family. May God just surround you with His presence, and may He provide the comfort and strength to go through this tragedy. I loved David and Linda Holland.

I first met David and Linda in Brazil on a Mission trip in 2004. Then served with them again in 2007. Spending such a short time with David, I developed a friendship that I will never forget. Things like laying cocrete blocks in the rain, talking to a Brazilian without a translator, and worshiping God in a foreign land, are just a few of the things I will always remeber doing with David. My heart breaks for the entire family. They will be missed.

Hi Shawn and Jill we wanted to pass on our condolensences to you and your family Our hearts and prayers are with you at this very tragic time we are praying for you all We met your mum and dad on vacation in palm springs with fred and nancy and a great time was had by all, your dad would refer to me as miss ellie (iam not as old as the original one!!) and my husband was refreded to as the "Governor" When we came to stay with Nancy and Fred last september we spent quite alot of time with linda and david - David was mostly on the golf course with fred and norm and one day i thought they they were never coming home when they did David had insisted that the governor go taste some real authentic mexican food- Whilst they were out us women had a tour around the neighbourhood looking at houses, Jill we came to visit you unfortunatly you were out but i was blessed with meeting John who gave me a tour of your beautiful home but i had to wait in the hall upstairs before i could enter the bedroom a very quick tidy had been undertaken (most of it under the bed) he was so proud of his wall and pointed out all the things for me to see on the wall what a wonderful personable young man, he was a credit to you. Your mum relayed a story to me about fred offering him a drink which he duly declined and then went and told grandma that fred had been inappropriate and offered him a drink he obviously thought fred meant alcohol oh we did laugh. I made yorkshire puddings for your dad whilst we were visiting (a tradtional dish here in the UK) your dad wasnt keen and said very politly not fo me i dont think Jill and shawn may the lord bless you and help you remain strong for friday we will be with you in spirit If ever you come to the uk there will always be a place in north yorkshire for you and your family to rest your heads lots of love from norm and ellie for the united kingdom

We were with Linda and Dave in Campbellsville. Dave and I played basketball. I graduated from Caneyville High School so I remember Dave back to the Hughes-Kirk days. No words to express the sorrow of this tragedy.

I know there are no words at a time like this that will comfort or take away your sorrows and grief.I will only say trust in God and lean on Him! The family is in my prayers. Rita stay strong, you are in my heart, thoughts and prayers. God bless and be with you and family.

Coach Holland was our basketball coach at McLean County High School in Calhoun around 1976-77. I was a cheerleader and remember that Coach Holland always had a smile on his face. Then as the years went by, I was so surprised to see him at Henderson County High School where I was a teacher. He still had that same smile and remembered me. He was such a kind man. My heart grieves at the loss his family is going through right now. Please know that prayers are being lifted up. May God comfort you during this difficult time.

I know their is no words to say to mend your broken hearts, It's such a great loss, just know I'm here for you, and you all are in our prayers. we love you.

My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family during this difficult time.

David was an outstanding school administrator, but more importantly, he was a great person. I will forever remember David for his geneoristy and wonderful personality. He wll never be forgotten by the generations of children he taught and by those of us who were his colleaques. I thank God for this man.s life and influence. John Vaughan former Superintendent Henderson County Schools V

We are praying for the family during this difficult situation.

I will miss our "education" discussions--given time, we could have solved all the problems. Thanks for sharing your family with me--will miss you and Linda more than words can say--rac

Best friend I ever had. Will miss forever.

Please accept our deepest condolences for your family's loss.
