Brandon J Holtke

Brandon was born in Rockford, Illinois on January 15, 1993 as the only child of Tom and Patricia Holtke. He passed away on December 15, 2025.

Brandon was an accomplished auto mechanic. He worked many years at Napleton's Autowerks, and most recently at Rock County Honda in Janesville, Wisconsin.

Aside from working on cars, what Brandon enjoyed most of all was fishing. He and his dad found nothing better to do than to spend an afternoon fishing and just being together. Sometimes caught a fish, sometimes not. Didn't matter, they were together.

We want Brandon to be remembered for his kind heart and selfless spirit most of all - and his humor! He was the best at making others laugh! Even if he was in pain he could come up with something so unexpected and hilarious!

He is survived by his parents, his Aunt Carolyn Allen, and cousins Dawn Hartman and Sandy Allen. He is also survived by his girlfriend, Julie Hedrick. Predeceased by his grandparents and Uncle Chet Allen.

We would like to thank all of his friends who loved him.

At his request there will be no services. A Celebration of Life will be in Spring at one of his favorite fishing spots. Stateline Cremations is assisting the family, 6204 Forest Hills Rd. Loves Park, IL 61111. www.statelinecremations.com
