R.I.P. Mr. Holthus and prayers of comfort for his family members. Thank you for all the years you brought great entertainment to those of us attending Oaklawn. You helped forge many a career for those who worked under your guidence and direction. You will be sadly missed.

I thought he did a great job with Lawyer Ron. Him and John McKee really tore it up that year.
