James's obituary

James Alan Holt passed away on May 05, 2022 at the age of 29. He was born on January 05, 1993 in North Hollywood, California to Lan Nguyen and Dean Holt. James was raised in Simi Valley, California with friends and family all around him. At a young age, James loved skateboarding, wrestling, playing football, being outdoors and so much more. James was determined; when he put his mind to something, it was going to happen. James graduated high school in 2011 and continued his education at Moorpark College. He was dedicated to his future; he simultaneously worked a full time job and took classes. While working, James found his passion and love for cooking and smoking meat. In 2014, James met and fell in love with his wife Amanda. They got married in 2016 and would go on to have a beautiful daughter Penelope Ann Holt, who was James' whole world. James would go on to accomplish so much more. He bought his first house in Tehachapi, California and started working at PPG Aerospace as a Chemical Operator. However, his biggest accomplishment was his family. James loved to barbecue, fish, camp, hike, engage in archery, ride dirt bikes, practice jujitsu and be with his family. James loved his animals leading to the desire to start a farm. Not only was James a super hard worker and excelled at what he was working on, he was an amazing and loving husband and father. He will be deeply missed by so many in his life.

James was predeceased by his grandfather, Norman Holt. However, he is survived by his wife Amanda; his daughter Penelope; his mother Lan; his father Dean; and his siblings Thy, Quan, Cam, and Tina.
