About	John Edward Holden, age 63, passed away unexpectedly at home on March 16, 2022. He was the son of the late Thomas and Natalie (Dewhurst) Holden. He is survived by his brothers, Tom and his wife Diane and Jim and his wife Lisa; his nieces and nephews, Christina, Jamie, Sean, Katie and their families. Also, his cousin’s Eileen Couto and Jeanne Coyle. John graduated from Holy Family, Tabor Academy and with honors from New Hampshire College. One of his first jobs took him to Saudi Arabia. Upon his return, he presented all his family with special paintings he picked out for them. In his later years, he loved reading, sharing a laugh and an espresso with his brother Jim and buying cowboy boots, an ostrich, an alligator, you name it. He appreciated all the cards, letters and books he received from his niece, Katie. He happily took over where his sister Una left off caring for her guinea pig, Princess. We will miss spending time and making memories with you. We are glad you are at peace and home with God. Arrangements are in the care of the ROCK FUNERAL HOME, 1285 Ashley Blvd., New Bedford, MA 02745. To leave a note of condolence: www.rock-funeralhome.com
