Holt, Clarence Edward
Clarence Edward “Edd” Holt departed from his earthly body November 15, 2025, surrounded by his loved ones. Edd was born on May 18, 1940 to John and Sadie Holt.
Edd dedicated his life to the Lord and he surely heard the words, “well done, good and faithful servant, “upon entering the pearly gates. Edd had a servant heart, driven by compassion to help those who needed it most. Edd was a friend to all that knew him. He felt led to spread the gospel by crafting and handing out wooden hearts, butterflies, crosses, and figures of Jesus.
In addition to his parents, he was preceded in death by the love of his life and light of his world, Marie Holt; and his brothers, Harvey, Junior, and Kenneth Holt.
Left with precious memories are his sons, Alvin Holt (Anna), and John Holt (Stephanie); his grandchildren whom he treasured, Kyle Holt (Rachel), Kelsey Parman (Nick), and Griffin Holt; his great-grandchildren who bought so much joy to his life, Gatlin Thomas, and Eleanor April-Marie Holt; special loved ones, Juanita and Rudy Jones, Harold and Anna Jo Dowdy, Carol and Mike Kirk, Chuck and Melissa Sadler, Mike and Connie Wells, and his adopted family, Nicky Wilcoxson and the entire Wilcoxson family.
