Michael Andrew “Andy” Owens, 43, of Elizabethton, Tenn., passed away unexpectedly at his home on Saturday, July 3, 2021.
Andy was of the Baptist faith. He graduated from Happy Valley High School and was employed at Advance Auto Parts for 16 years. He loved his job and was the most devoted son and brother.

Heaven gained an angel and his family lost a wonderful son, brother, and friend.
He was preceded in death by his grandparents, Florence and husband Fred Shouse, and Beatrice and husband Tommy Owens.
