He has had to meet the opposition which inevitably attends the launching of any new venture, but he has overcome this by the results achieved if in no other way. Under his direction, record quantities of supplies and stores were transported night and day to 4th Corps until the very evening on which the road was cut by the enemy, and, but for his efforts, the reserves at the disposal of troops in the IMPHAL plain during these current operations must have been appreciably less.

Born in the County of Londonderry, Northern Ireland, Bob (as he was known by his many friends in Mission and Matsqui) was always an adventurous person. At 16, he found himself in the Northwest Frontier of India and for nine years, endured the rigours of malaria and other tropical diseases. Then came another nine years in the interior of China. He was captured by the Chinese and held for ransom. On the day appointed for his execution, he escaped! During World War II he was Commander of Motor Transport on the Burma Road in support of the 14th Army. He was appointed by General Alexander. He controlled both military and civilian transport. Under his command were 22,000 Indian and 1,000 British troops. He built a military airport, but his main responsibility was to control and deliver the supplies needed to maintain the 14th Army. More than 88,000 tons per month were transported over some of the most treacherous roads in the world and under frequent encounters with Japanese forces. He succeeded in preventing the Japanese from penetrating the hill area and gaining egress to the Plains and into India itself. For his service, he was honored with the Order of the British Empire. Soon after he and his wife Ruby settled in Mission, Bob acquired the ownership of Holmes Motors on First Avenue. Later, he obtained the qualifications in Real Estate from the University of British Columbia in the field of appraisals. He proceeded with advanced studies in municipal administration, taxation, and finance. Until his retirement, he was Chief Assessor for the district of Matsqui. Each year since, he has served on the Court of Revision. Colonel Holmes is survived by his wife, Ruby, three brothers and a sister in Northern Ireland, and a sister in England."
