BY RACHEL CHASON
Gary Holmberg, a retired D.C.
firefighter who loved sports,
pranks and being outside, died
March 29 following a n outbreak of
covid-19 at Pleasant View Nursing
Home in M t. Airy, M d.
The cause of death was pneu-
monia and possible covid-19, the
disease caused by the novel coro-
navirus, said his daughter, Tracy
Shavell. He was 77.
“He was n ot supposed to go t his
way,” said Shavell, of Frederick,
Md., who visited her father almost
every day.
Holmberg moved into Pleasant
View in late February after taking
a fall at a previous nursing home.
He had been diagnosed with de-
mentia about two years ago,
Shavell s aid.
He grew up in the District and
joined the D.C. National Guard
after graduating from Anacostia
High School. He served for 22
years as a firefighter, retiring in
1988 from E ngine 1 5.
His son, Robert Holmberg, of
St. Mary’s County, remembered
his father bringing him to the fire
station when he was growing up
and letting him slide down the
pole the firefighters used.
On weekends, his father’s
friends would gather at their
house in St. Mary’s County, telling
jokes and stories about work.
Holmberg volunteered with the
American Red Cross during Hur-
ricane Katrina and helped with
disaster relief throughout his re-
tirement. His younger brother,
Jim Holmberg, said Gary had
saved lives “and birthed at least
one b aby.”
“He cared about people,” said
Jim Holmberg, of Shenandoah
Junction, W.Va. “That was what
his core was made o f.”
The elder brother was also a
prankster who loved nothing
more than a good laugh. Like all
the brothers in the family, Gary
had a temper, Jim Holmberg add-
ed.
Gary Holmberg loved baseball
— he once unsuccessfully tried out
for the Washington Senators —
fishing, crabbing and golf. Shavell
said her father taught her how to
play softball, loved to roughhouse
with her a nd h er b rother, could fix
anything around the house, and
was the person that neighbors
called if they needed anything.
“He would help anyone,” she
said.
Holmberg was transported to
Carroll County Hospital with a
respiratory infection o n March 27,
the same day authorities an-
nounced the outbreak at Pleasant
View.
By March 28, he was gasping for
air. Shavell and her brother said
goodbye to their father, who died
the next morning. They are await-
ing results of a coronavirus test
and a n autopsy.
In addition to his two children,
Holmberg is survived by four
grandchildren and three siblings.
