Andrew Joseph Boutot

Andrew Joseph Boutot, 56, known by many as “Drew” passed away on January 26, 2018.  He was born in Jamaica, NY on August 4, 1961 to Mary and Ben Boutot.  He was a 1979 graduate of Manteo High and was a carpenter and painter by trade.

Andrew loved music, his all-time favorites were RUSH and Lynard Skynard.  He also loved astronomy and anything to do with science.  All that knew him, know he lived his life on his own terms and in his own way. Knowing he passed away peacefully in his sleep is all we could have wanted for him.

Andrew is loved and remembered by his three sisters; Jeanne Hart & husband Jay of Kill Devil Hills, NC,  Diane Overman and husband Carl of Harbinger, Lisa Simpson and husband, Larry also of  Kill Devil Hills.  Also surviving is Drew’s father, Ben Boutot and wife Betty Jo of Ft.
