Andy Holmes' light has gone out of the world. Despite his handicap, he was a wonderful and ornery uncle to his many nieces and nephews. He passed peacefully, and his family knows God is waiting with open arms to welcome him into heaven. His parents, Ronald and Donna Holmes, have lost a son. His wife, Donilee, has lost her husband. His siblings, Thomas and Paula Holmes, Joseph and Sandra Holmes, and Don and Jeanne Greene, have lost their brother.
