THE AMES TRIBUNE, Ames, Story County, Iowa, Sunday, December 21, 2008.

Erma Holtman, 84, passed away Tuesday, Dec. 16, 2008, at Calvin Community, in Des Moines. Funeral services will be at 1 p.m. Monday, Dec. 22, at Capitol Hill Christian Church with burial in the Glendale Cemetery in Des Moines.

Erma was born June 22, 1924, in Des Moines, to Hal and Marie Brown. She graduated from East High School in 1942 and was a member of Capitol Hill Christian Church for 68 years.

Erma worked for Iowa Power and Light for a number of years before staying home to raise her family. She enjoyed reading the newspaper every morning, her monthly luncheons with "the girls," bowling and traveling. But her greatest passion in life was her family: sharing the love of her husband, sisters, children and grandchildren.

Erma is survived by the love of her life, Lyle, her husband of nearly 60 years; sons, Steve (Shelley) Holtman and Jon (Shaela) Holtman; grandchildren, Erin (Derek) Miller, Kyle (Laura) Holtman, Stephanie, Andrea and Ethan Holtman; sisters, Margaret (Warren, deceased), Grandia and Shirley (Larry) Peterson. She was preceded in death by her parents and sister, Virginia Solomon.

Memorial contributions may be made to Capitol Hill Christian Church.
