In Loving Memory, we celebrate the life of John D. Holliday who passed away at his home.
John was born in Los Angeles on June 5, 1957 to John H. Holliday and Mary A. Smiley. He graduated from Ventura High School in 1976 and was the owner and operator of the family business, Lil' John's Complete Yard Cleanup & Tree Service. He loved life and lived it to the fullest. He enjoyed everything from hunting to bowling. He had an extreme passion for cars. He supported our local Ventura College basketball teams and was a loyal Lakers fan. John loved his family and was very proud of his daughter. After 50 years of his life he came to know Christ and found a wonderful church family at Ventura Missionary Church. He was baptized in October of 2009.
He was preceded in death by his mother, Mary A. Smiley, and his father, John H. Holliday. John is survived by his daughter, April Kocka, husband Brian; son, Brian Holliday; brothers, Tim Holliday, wife Kay, Dave Stankewicz; sister, Rita George; nephews, Danny Holliday, Ryan Holliday and Lucas Cantoni; niece, Collette; and many more relatives and friends.
