Stephen (Steve) Holloran of Woodstock, Ga., passed away on Dec. 4, 2022,  at the age of 73.  He was the beloved husband of Janice Mix Holloran for eighteen wonderful years.

One of Steve’s greatest joys was traveling through life and having adventures with Janice, especially on cruises. The couple even got married in Key West, Fla., while on a cruise.  Steve loved country music, Bruce Springsteen, dining out and playing trivia with friends. He also gave back to the community by volunteering at The Foundation for Hospital Arts and Children’s Restoration Network - both in Atlanta.

While Steve and Janice did not have any children, Steve loved the couple’s “fur-
babies,” including Scout, a King Charles spaniel, and two rescue cats, Callie and
Sweetie.

Born in Lynchburg, Va., to James Monroe Holloran Sr. and Lucile Stone, Steve was also devoted to his extended family.

He then served in the Virginia National Guard for six years and graduated from Virginia Commonwealth University in 1979 with a bachelor’s degree in fine art.  He began his career as an art teacher in Chesterfield County Public Schools insuburban Richmond, Va. Steve was well liked by both students and faculty and went on to win recognition as the county teacher of the year. Later, he would move to the Atlanta area and work for ADP and Equifax.
