Talmage Benjamin Holland Jr., 80, member of the former Warwick City Council,

before the cities of Newport News and Warwick consolidated in 1958.
Mr. Holland was a founding member and first president of Warwick Kiwanis Club in 
1949, helping to form the first Key Club on the Peninsula. He served as

He was a native of Franklin, graduated from Maury High School in Norfolk, and 
was a resident of Newport News for 60 years. Mr. Holland was formerly vice 
president of General Automotive Supply Co. in Norfolk and had been a Realtor 
with Carpenter Brothers and the Bryan Realty Co. of Newport News.
As a member of the Warwick Masonic Lodge, he was past president of the Red Coats 
and most recently served as venerable master of the Lodge of Perfection and Wise 
Master of the Chapter of Rose Croix.
He volunteered on the 1995 United Way Fund Distribution Steering Committee, as 
he had done for many years. He was an Advisory Council member of the Retired 
Senior Volunteer Program. A longtime member of First United Methodist Church, he 
served in various capacities, including chairman of the Board of Trustees, 
superintendent of Sunday school, treasurer and member of the Administrative 
Board.
He is survived by his wife, Mildred Elizabeth Jarvis Holland; four daughters, 
Talmage Lynne Brock of Arlington, Anne Burch and Nancy Miller of Richmond and 
Elizabeth Maxwell of Durham, N.C.; 11 grandchildren; and a stepbrother, Dale C. 
Holland of Virginia Beach.
In lieu of flowers, memorials may be made to First United Methodist Church 
Foundation, 10246 Warwick Blvd., Newport News 23601, or to a favorite charity.
A Masonic service will be conducted 7 p.m. Wednesday at Peninsula Funeral Home,

will be held at 2 p.m. Thursday in First United Methodist Church by Rev. P.
