I've been involved in several chamber groups over the years who relied heavily on arrangements by Bill Holcombe (WindMusicPlus) for recreational playing, light performance pieces, and utility charts for weddings, holidays, etc.
Was surprised to see that most of this has disappeared with a few things being sold under that name on Ebay. Does anybody know if someone is still publishing these arrangements?

I think most of Bill's catalog is being sold by Musicians Publications - http://billholcombe.com/. As I remember, that was his company when he was alive, although it has moved from near Trenton, New Jersey to Newport News, VA. I don't know who runs it now. Their website is still online.
I rented one of Bill's arrangements for an orchestra for which I'm the librarian from Mario Singh's https://www.myorchestrarentals.com/ as recently as January, 2020. That company is now in Waxhaw, NC.
I'm not sure if these two are divisions of the same company, although I think they aren't. They both feature Holcombe's compositions and arrangements.

Thanks! I checked it out, and it looks good. Glad this stuff hasn't been lost to the world!
