Steelers great Ernie Holmes was fearsome on the field, but kind, gentle and devout off it, said friends, family and teammates at his funeral Saturday. Holmes, who died in a car accident Jan. 17 between Beaumont and Nacogdoches, was part of Pittsburgh's famous "Steel Curtain" defensive line that helped the team win the Super Bowl in 1975 and 1976.
