Justin Holbrook Obituary
COLUMBIA

Justin Brewster Holbrook, lifelong resident of Columbia Connecticut passed away courageously at his home Monday, February 26, surrounded by loved ones and his devoted Cognac and Otto.

He is survived by his loving family, beautiful wife, Andrea, joyful son, Luke and amazing daughter, Lauren. He was predeceased by his brother-in-law, Benjamin Iacovelli.

Justin was the son of Laurens Holbrook, Gloria Person Holbrook and the great- nephew of Florence Carter.

He also leaves his three siblings: Jill Grant (Columbia, CT) sons, Christopher and Matthew Grant; Nancy Holbrook (Woodbury, CT) son, Robin Fernandez and daughter, Ashley Fernandez; Daniel Holbrook (Columbia, CT), wife, Brenda and son, Zachary Holbrook; and godson, Andrs Fox as well as all his cousins from Colorado to Connecticut.

He leaves his many dear friends from all walks of life. Justin enjoyed all aspects of life and treasured the connections between people. Simple acts of kindness, the joy of his screaming kids at a seven-dollar carwash on a hot summers day, digging a hole in the rich earth, smelling the damp soil, and planting a tree. He knew the best gifts of life were not given they were experienced.

He would ask us all to remember him by holding a door for a stranger and to smile more because it makes the world a better place.
