Baron Holt Obituary

Baron Gabel Holt

Jacksonville, FL

Baron Gabel Holt, born August 29, 1981 passed away on June 21, 2015 in Jacksonville, FL. If one word could describe Baron, it would be faithful..to his God, his parents, staff, friends and family. He had recently returned from a Christian retreat in Guatemala and his staff commented that he was even more connected to his faith than ever before.

He graduated from WSCC, Carson Newman College with a degree in Biology Pre Med, and Palmer Chiropractic School and owned his own practice in Raleigh, NC; Revolution Chiropractic, and had just celebrated his 5th Anniversary. He was a member of Maximixed Living and credited his helping of others from the teachings of Drs. Ben Lerner, Greg Loman, and Zane Sterling.

Baron devoted his life to helping people unlock their true healing potential through chiropractic and lifestyle change. He was a sought after speaker and had the privilege to work with Olympic athletes as well as UFC Fighters. He was involved with his Summit Church family, participating in and contributing to several mission endeavors and local fund raising events. He enjoyed competing in triathlons, hunting and for relaxation, read every book he could find on spiritual and motivational self improvements.

Baron was the grandson of Jim and Helen Brock and George and Dorothy Holt. He leaves behind a daughter, Haley, age 3; parents: Janis (Richard) Dixon and Gary (LeeAnne) Holt. Brothers: Keven (Candi) Wiley and Andrew Swann. Nephew: Sebastian Wiley, Aunt: Vicki Haseman, cousin: Rachel Haseman; Uncle: Frank (Cathy) Holt and many cousins. His staff: Brigittte Spurgeon, Tamara Hale and Danielle Boisvert, and numerous friends that he loved and considered family. Plus two adored furbabies: Aspyn and Nada.

I always found Baron to be a devoted and dedicated person in his practice. He was a very fine young man and will surely be missed. He was taken away from us too soon. May God be with his family and friends during this difficult time.

Baron, I still can't wrap my head around you being gone. We always had such fun kidding each other and me " mothering" you when I would come in for adjustments. Forever I will remember you.

Baron and I grew up together,from elementary school to high school, and I will never forget him! I can't think of another person that would be there if you needed a friend,the good die young. I will miss my friend and I know he's with JESUS, and one day I'll get to hang out with him:)

Baron I have been trying to process this all week. Today I just broke out in tears. I am having so much regret not coming to see you after I had Avery. You adjusted me through the whole pregnancy and I never came back to see you. And now I am really struggling because you are no longer here. You were a great guy you had a passion for The Lord and helping others. I wish I would have taken the time to get to know you more. I think you and Josh would have been great friends you had so much in common. You will be greatly missed by us.

He was not here long enough for us, but long enough for God. He changed many lives for the better, including mine. May God's blessings pour over you, each and everyone during these coming days of grief at his passing but joy of his home-going to be with his Lord and Savior.
