“It is with heavy heart and great sadness that Tarrant County Sheriff’s Office announces the death of Corporal Charles E. Holt. He was diagnosed with COVID on Thursday August 27, 2020 and lost his battle against the disease on September 1, 2020 at the age of 36.

Corporal Holt began working for TCSO in 2014 and was assigned to the booking division and served on the Intelligence team. He proudly showed up under tough conditions and performed his duties in a positive and honorable manner. He leaves behind his wife, Moranda, three children, many friends and TCSO team members. He will be greatly missed.

Mrs. Holt asked we share the touching moment when she arrived home from the hospital to break the news to her children. They told her, “It’s OK momma, we already know dad has completed his assignment here.” Please keep the family, friends and coworkers of Corporal Holt in your thoughts and prayers in the coming days.

Funeral arrangements are pending.”

Our thoughts & prayers are with the members of the Tarrant County Sheriff’s Office and Corporal Holt’s loved ones.
