Thanks For Stopping By!!!
Hello
all!!! Thanks for stopping by. I'm Johnny Holmes. I live in Mount
Holly, New Jersey where I was born and raised. I graduated from
Rancocas Valley Regional High School located in Mount Holly in 1983, and
from Rider College (now Rider University) located in Lawrenceville, New
Jersey in 1987. I work in Trenton where I've been an Auditor with the
New Jersey Department of Treasury, Division of Taxation since 1988. I
have a wonderful & sweet wife Helen. We were married in 2003, in
Las Vegas, Nevada!!! Helen also works for the Department of Treasury
since 2004. We keep ourselves busy attending various movie/nostalgia conventions, traveling and visiting assorted
places of interest, state capitols, and National Parks across the United States
Here
are a couple of photos of my wonderful wife Helen and myself. We've
been together since 1999. We had the pleasure of being engaged in
Niagara Falls, Canada in 2002 and enjoyed a "getaway" wedding in Las
Vegas in July of 2003. Each and every day for us together is a true
blessing!!!
Feel
free to visit our Flickr Photo page with numerous pictures of
vacations, events, holidays, and maybe even a bit of goofing around!!!
John Sr. and Beverly Holmes
Here
is a portrait of my parents, John Sr. & Beverly. Dad passed away
in 1992, and Mom retired as a Child Support Case Worker with the
Burlington County Board of Social Services and lives one block down the
street from me in the same house I grew up in.
Dad passed away on July 22, 1992 as a result of injuries he received in the line of duty as a member of the Mount Holly Police Department on Good Friday, March 28, 1975. Two fellow officers were killed, and my father was critically wounded, as a result of gunfire from a lone sniper who began to open fire from the third floor of his residence. John O. Holmes, Sr. was left paralyzed from his chest down for the rest of his life. I will never forget the lessons he has taught me while demonstrating on a day-to-day basis, the meaning of courage while dealing with his numerous medical complications

About Johnny
Well I have many diverse interests. I enjoy music from the 1950's to the 1980's, I also enjoy collecting episodes from the Golden Age of Radio. Some of my favorites are: Dimension X, X Minus One, The Hall of Fantasy, Gunsmoke, Jack Benny, Fibber McGee & Molly, The Great Gildersleeve, and many, many more!!! I particularly enjoy listening to Old Time Radio and Nostalgia Talk on the internet radio station, "Radio Once More". Additionally I am a huge fan of classic old Television Shows. More and more of these classic shows are coming out on DVD. I have a sizeable DVD collection of too many shows to list but some of these include, Gilligan's Island, The Honeymooners, Star Trek, The Twilight Zone, The Outer Limits, Cheers, Batman, etc. I love the classic shows on ME TV and Antenna TV. Also, I am a huge Cartoon Fan. I enjoy the classic old Warner Brothers shorts including Bugs Bunny, Elmer Fudd, Daffy Duck, etc. I enjoy the classic old Hanna-Barbera cartoons like Flintstones, Jetsons, Top Cat, Yogi Bear, Jonny Quest, Josie & the Pussycats, Wacky Races, etc. And I also enjoy classic old comedy including the Little Rascals, Laurel & Hardy, and most of all I love the Three Stooges. I'm continuously updating and adding to my collection, so if you would like to discuss any Old Time Radio, Classic TV, Animation, whatever, drop me a line!!!
