Ms. Holdway fulfilled a lifelong career as a Registered Nurse, caring deeply for those she cared for and specifically working in pediatrics, geriatrics, and child and adult psychiatrics. An animal lover, she raised four dogs that predeceased her – Taffy, Angel, Buddy, and Honey. Ms. Holdway had such a big heart that she adopted Buddy as a homeless stray right off of a Memphis street and Buddy went on to live a long, full life due to her actions. She volunteered with local animal rescue groups giving freely of her time to the care of these dogs. Ms. Holdway also loved going to the dog park with her dogs and meeting up with other dog owners on a regular basis. Ms. Holdway was an avid church goer and she taught Sunday school for some time at the Central Baptist Church in Tennessee. Like her mother, she loved to Jazzercise and go to dances.

She is survived by brothers Rodney Follin (Peggy Tucker) of Fairfax Station, VA and Gary Follin (Kim) of Falls Church and many aunts, uncles and cousins and other loving family members, and many dear friends she’s had for years including her best friend Carolyn Juergens of Yorktown, VA. There will be a graveside service on Friday, September 4, 2020 at 11 a.m. to be held at National Memorial Park in Falls Church, VA.
