Charles 'Chase' Gordon Holmes, Jr. passed on to heaven on Saturday, January 11th, 2014 at 9:15am.

Surviving Chase is his wife, Stephanie Holmes. They were together since the moment he asked her to dance with him seven years ago, and have been married three beautiful years. He is also survived by his loving parents, Charles 'Gordon' Holmes and Jerrie Suzanne Holmes, and his brothers, Garrett Joseph Holmes, husband of Esther Holmes; and Tyler Bradley Holmes, husband of Cassie Holmes.

Chase was a graduate of Bishop Kelley High School in Tulsa, OK. He earned both a B.S. and M.S. in accounting from Oklahoma State University in Stillwater, OK. He also earned a CPA, which he applied during his employment at Ernst & Young, LLP in both the Tulsa, OK office from 2009-2010 and Jacksonville, FL office from 2010 to the present.

Chase was full of life. He saw the beauty in other people, made them feel cared for, and had such a positive, bright spirit, that one could not help but smile in his presence. Chase lit up the room whenever he walked in. While he enjoyed many activities in life, he most enjoyed socializing with his family and friends.
