Andy Nesbitt Obituary

Obituary published on Legacy.com by Groce Funeral Home & Cremation Services - East Asheville on Mar. 30, 2026.
Fairview – Andy "Trey" Nesbitt, 51, passed away unexpectedly on Saturday, March 28, 2026.

Trey was born in Buncombe County to Andy "Steve" Nesbitt and Bonny Jones Nesbitt.

Trey was a member of Nesbitt's Chapel Church in Fairview. He was a beloved employee at Deerfield Retirement Community since 2009. He loved the Lord and his family with all his heart and especially his son Matthew. He never met a stranger and was always willing to help anyone in need. He loved his daily routine of working on the farm with his cattle, working in the garden to give the food away, fishing, cooking for others and having friends and family over for his Friday and Saturday night bonfires.

He is survived by his son, Matthew Nesbitt (Abbagail Allen); his parents, Steve Nesbitt and Bonny Nesbitt; his girlfriend, Melissa Sehion and her son, Randy; two sisters, Wendy Wheeler (Todd) and Shannon Best; a niece, Katelyn Wheeler; a nephew, Colton Best; three great nephews, Mack, Sterlen and Kapten; his honorary brothers, Michael Woody, Ken Smith and Landon Altman and many others close friends and extended family.

A memorial service will be held on Thursday, April 2, 2026 at Nesbitt's Chapel in Fairview at 4:00 pm with pastor Eric McAbee officiating. The family will receive friends one hour prior to the service at the church from 3:00 pm to 4:00 pm.

In lieu of flowers, memorial donations may be made to Nesbitt's Chapel Cemetery Fund, c/o Treasurer Kim Ray, 63 Heavens Ridge, Fairview, NC 28730.

Groce Funeral Home Tunnel Road, Asheville, NC is assisting the family.
