Personal Notes:
LaWayne Holeman Boney was the daughter of Cloyce T. & Ernestine King Holeman, and Jim Holeman, her only brother. She was married to Jack Boney, Jr. until his death. They had 3 children, Cathy Boney Jones, Joe Boney, and Steve Boney. She prepared large meals for her family of five and sometimes fed neighbors and friends that helped with gathering and branding the family cattle herd. She prepared so many large meals it was a huge adjustment when her home was an empty nest and the love of her life suddenly died in a car accident.
