Wynette was such a sweet person. I know my Mom always loved her and and I did too. I enjoyed the few times I got to visit with her. I know she will be truly missed. Prayers go out to all the family.

Wynette was such a sweet little Southern lady. It was such a joy to visit her and see her at the Yo-Hi reunions. She will be missed greatly–

My condolences go out to the family. This must be a very difficult time for you but you will be able to find comfort in Revelation 21:4. Please read this with your loved one in mind.

Wynette was such a gracious hostess. She always made us feel welcome in her home. I remember she always wore the most beautiful robes in the morning.

The last time I was in the Holcombe home, I had just finished a weekend enduring Level 5 of the Healing Touch program. Tom asked me the bibical basis for Healing Touch, and I reminded him of the woman who just wanted to touch the hem of Jesus’ robe in order to be cured. Wynette had injured her shoulder and I offered to do healing touch. I asked Tom if he could play some music while I did it and he put on a recording of the Easter cantata that their church had performed. It was the same on that our choir had done. I didn’t “cure” Wyntette’s shoulder but gave her some relief from pain.

We will miss your sweet smile at the Yo-Hi reunions.
