Keith David Hollier
February 2, 1961 ~ November 13, 2025
Resided in: Red Creek, NY
Keith David Hollier, age 64 beloved husband, dad, grandfather, son, brother passed away in Jacksonville, FL on November 13, 2025, leaving a void his family cannot fill. Keith passed away peacefully with family by his side.
Keith was born in Fulton, NY on February 2, 1961, to David and Susan (Tyler) Hollier. He was the big brother of Kelly Gardner and Kerry Hollier. Keith attended and graduated from Red Creek Central High School in 1980. After school he joined the workforce by working at Coastal Clocks in Red Creek, then the Ladder Company in North Rose, and then worked at Hanson Aggregates Stone Quary in Butler, NY where he retired. After retirement Keith worked for Catholic Charities of Oswego County that he would confirm that was his most favorite and rewarding job.
Keith was raising two lovely children, Douglas and Barbra, before he met the love of his life Andrea and her son Benjamin. They were married on August 20, 1994, to make their family whole.
Keith took special joy in many activities. Throughout his life he enjoyed hunting, fishing, snowmobiling, watching sports of all kinds, and camping, especially sitting around a campfire enjoying a beer or two. He was a craftsman who loved tinkering, restoring and building anything with a motor. Keith could fix just about anything. All he needed was an idea, he would do research, think about it and then the idea would come to life. Keith enjoyed being out on the pontoon boat relaxing in the sun and enjoying many beautiful sunsets. He loved enjoying all these activities with family and friends.
Keith was proceeded in death by his mother Susan (Tyler) Hollier and his loving fur buddy, Buckley. Keith is survived by his loving wife of 31 years Andrea (Kirsch) Hollier, as well as his children Douglas Hollier, Barbra (Donald) Delpa, and Benjamin Kirsch. He is also survived by 10 beautiful grandchildren that were the love of his life, Zeke, Macale, Wyatt, Korbin, Damian, Brooke, Cindy, Noah, Layla and Louie and one great grandchild who will be arriving in April. Keith is survived by his father David Hollier, sister Kelly Gardner and brother Kerry Hollier. He is also survived by many cherished aunts, uncles, cousins, in-laws, nieces, nephews and dear friends.
A Celebration of Life for Keith will be planned soon. Details will be announced at a later date. In lieu of flowers the family asks that you check the air in your tires, the belts and all the spark plug wires – just as he would while working on a project with family or friends. In Keith’s honor donations can be made to Catholic Charities of Oswego County. www.ccoswego.com

A couple of my greatest memories are picking berries, and of course, having berries and milk, which I still love to this day! I enjoyed sledding down the hill in the winter time. There was a time that we rode our bikes from our house to your house, which certainly was a long way for young kids. Keith was not paying attention one time and rode right into a narrow tree, and his bike flipped up forward on the front tire and he hit his nose on the tree. He was OK but we sure all laughed, including him. I loved walking, barefoot down the road near your house in the summertime going to the creek. There was a family out there I believe their name was Ricker, Scott Ricker, I believe. I remember your parents went away somewhere for a period of time, and my mother and us kids stayed there with you. We sure had a wonderful time. I remember you had a dog and some cats.
May our Lord wrap His loving arms around your entire family during this time of mourning. Please know that I shall lift you all in prayer, and that Keith is home with Jesus.
You are all so loved, and Keith will be sorely missed. I shall keep these memories forever close to my heart.
Love, Doug & Maree Kinney
So sorry for the loss. I always enjoyed our school days. So sad that a Red Creek brother has passed. My respects to the family.
