Larce Holder was a scoutmaster in Farmerville for decades. Behind every good man is a good woman and Mr. Holder had his. Standing behind the scenes but always beside his side was his wife of 63 years, Miss Sadie. At every scout event she was there. When we visited his home, she would quietly be with us. When she addressed her husband it was Larce but when she referred to his name while talking to one of the scouts it was always Mr. Holder. Everyone knew Mr. Holder as a local artist and art teacher. Many of us took art from him but what was not fully realized was that Mrs. Holder was also an art teacher. I was astounded to find this out and did not realize that she taught at Cedar Creek Academy. Friends of mine were equally unknowing of her accomplishments. In the 1950s and 60s people would have a tendency to name their cars. Several of the scouts nicknamed Mr. Holders car, THASADIE, in honor of Mrs Holder. A great team these two made and together they entered the nursing home together and continued to be soul mates.At the end of each scout meeting, the scouts would form a circle and one scout would lead the scout prayer that all would recite: “And now, may the great scout master, of all good scouts be with us until we meet again. And may we follow the trail that leads to him.” Last week Mrs Holder joined the Great Scout Master and left behind a loving and devoted husband of 63 years. She also left behind a group of loving and appreciative scouts that she meant so much to.
