Andrew David Whitlatch came into this world on March 21, 1999, in Salt Lake City, Utah, the son of David Whitlatch, a U.S Army veteran, and Olga Whitlatch, a CFO originally from Ukraine.

Tragically, Andrew’s life ended suddenly on September 19, 2024, in Burke, Virginia. Although his life was short, it burned bright like a comet making a lasting impact on all those who knew him.

A talented writer and gifted conversationalist, Andrew was a good and loyal friend to many. He was a member of Word of Hope Church in Silver Spring, MD, for several years and most enjoyed hiking in his native Utah, where he longed to return.

A remembrance of Andrew’s life will be held at Money & King Funeral Home in Vienna, VA on Saturday, September 28, 2024, from 2-4 p.m., followed immediately by a reception at his family’s home in McLean, VA. His service will be officiated by Pastor Brian Kingrea.

Andrew is survived by both grandmothers, Gail Whitlatch and Tamara Rudolph, his mother Olga Whitlatch Newberry and stepfather, James Newberry, a sister, Summer Whitlatch, an uncle, Volodymyr Kleban, countless friends, and Nixie, a playful silver lab.

In lieu of flowers, the family recommends a contribution to United Help Ukraine, a cause dear to Andrew’s heart.

You were still my best friend, and I always tried to see the good and potential in you. I believed in you, right up until the end, and I always held onto hope for you. It breaks my heart to see you leave this world, I will always remember you. The man who showed me kindness and never was fake with me. I will carry your memory with me, and I promise I won’t forget the moments we shared. I’ll keep your spirit alive through my actions, knowing that you are still with me in some way.

This world cannot hurt you anymore, you are in the embrace of your savior finally. I truly believe we will meet again. You were the one who talked to me about Christ, who shared the gospel and your personal testimony with me, and I’ve never forgotten those conversations. You inspired me to become a Christian and strive to be a better person. That was your gift, you had the power to move hearts with your words.
