John Wesley tragically lost his life in a hit and run accident on February 18th, 2023. John Wesley was an Eagle Scout and a sophomore electrical engineering major at the University of South Alabama. To honor his memory, the Holt family has established the John Wesley Holt Legacy Scholarship awarded annually to a St. Luke's senior who has shown the same passion and dedication that John Wesley exemplified in all parts of his life: Character, Academics, and Athletics. John Wesley Holt, an Uncommon Man.
