Their life, in the words of those who remember
The story of Andre Holloway
Andre Holloway was a Detroit man whose life mattered deeply to family and friends. Known to those close to him by name and presence, Andre was part of a tight web of relatives who continue to speak of him with love. In public accounts of the family’s grief, his mother, Angela Holloway, and other relatives conveyed the depth of feeling his absence left behind.
At the time of his death Andre was 34 years old. Local reporting notes that his birthday occurred just days after March 25, 2017, a detail his family has referenced when remembering the milestone that his loved ones were robbed of celebrating. Though the public record emphasizes the tragedy of his death, the people who spoke for him in the years after described a son and brother whose life had meaning to a close circle of family and friends.
Friends and family made public appeals for information and for the community to come together in support of one another. His mother publicly urged the neighborhood to speak up so other families would not have to endure the same pain. Those appeals show a family determined to keep Andre’s memory alive while seeking answers.
Because there is no family-published obituary or funeral-home notice located in accessible public sources that matches the exact date of death, this remembrance focuses on verified facts about Andre’s life and on the voices of those who mourn him. Above all, this page honors Andre as a person who was loved by his family and whose life had the ordinary yet profound worth of everyday relationships — a son, a brother, and a member of his Detroit community.
If you have memories of Andre you wish to share with his family, or if you hold information that might help bring his loved ones further peace, please consider contacting the local Crime Stoppers tip line referenced in public appeals. The family’s requests for answers and the community’s calls for solidarity are part of how they continue to honor his life.
