Holmes along with family members held a balloon release in Dolton for his daughter Tamara Sword. She was caught in the middle of a gunfight near an Indianapolis nightclub back in 2015.

The crime scene was littered with some .45 caliber shell casings. The gunfire apparently came from several people involved in a scuffle at a night club next to a gas station. Sword was outside the station when the shooting started, but ran and jumped into a car hoping to find shelter from the bullets. It didn't work. Her father says she was shot in the chest and died.

"Everybody says it's gonna be alright, no it will never be alright, cause my baby ain't here," Holmes said during the balloon release. "Then you say she's in a better place, we all pray and we believe in Christ. A better place is right here."
