Posted

Andrew “Andy” Holt, age 61, of Kempner, passed away on the evening of March 15, 2023. Mass of Christian Burial was held at 11 a.m., Friday, March 24, at Holy Family Catholic Church in Copperas Cove. Burial followed at Copperas Cove City Cemetery.

Andy was born in Stuttgart, Germany, moved to the United States as a young child, and eventually ended up in Gatesville, Texas, where he graduated high school. For 20 years Andy worked sandblasting and painting water towers. Later in life he worked and retired as a mechanic, which was his true passion. He loved cars, FORDS to be precise, especially his Mustang that he would take to the track to race.

Another favorite of Andy’s was to take his wife Teresa out Country Western dancing. Andy was one of the kindest people you could ever meet and truly never met a stranger. He was so generous and would stop what he was doing to help anyone in need no matter day or night. He will be missed dearly by so many.

He was preceded in death by his mother, Helga.

Andy is survived by his wife of 26 years, Teresa; his nine children, Blaise Holt, Rheanne Moore and husband, Dominique, Renee Butterfield and husband, Austin, Regina Norton and husband, Mundo, Daniel Norton and wife, Melissa, Rachel Kirkham and husband, James, Aaron Norton and wife, SonMi, Eric Norton and wife, Shannan, and Jason Norton; his 28 grandchildren and three great-grandchildren; his father Russel Holt and stepmother Loretta; and his two brothers, Jim Holt and Patrick Holt.
