It is with utter shock, disbelief, and sadness that I must report that my friend Clyde Holly passed away peacefully in his sleep in the early morning hours of September 10, 2006. Clyde died of complications resulting from a condition know as Sleep Apnea. Clyde leaves behind his wife Rachael, his son Jacob Strohm, two step sons Peter Murphy and Jacob Fleuriet, sister Denise Holloman Fernald, brother Charles Holloman, his band mates Rob, Mark, Dave, and Stefan, and an untold number of friends and fans.
