Andrew "Andy" Stanton Hough

  Andrew "Andy" Stanton Hough, age 58, passed away on Tuesday, July 30, 2024, leaving behind a legacy of love and devotion that will forever be cherished. He was born on March 20, 1966, in Arlington, Texas, to Clarence L. Hough Jr. and Patricia (Bubb) Hough, and grew up in Bryan, Texas. Andy's journey led him through life filled with profound experiences that shaped him into the remarkable individual he became. 

  He was a proud Eagle Scout and part of the Fighting Texas Aggie Class of '92, graduating from Texas A&M University with a Bachelor of Business Administration. Andy further displayed his commitment to education and personal growth by earning a Master of Business Administration from Louisiana State University Shreveport in 2018. His sense of duty and patriotism shone brightly during his service in the United States Marine Corps as a Corp Radio Field Operator during Desert Storm – a testament to his courage and selflessness. 

  In the beautiful union with his beloved wife, Bopha Chan, they created a loving home in Weatherford, where their family brought immeasurable joy to their lives. He remained an active member in Scouting throughout his life and his children's childhoods. Andy's devotion to his family and community was unwavering, along with his infectious sense of humor, leaving an indelible mark on all who knew him. 

  Left to honor his memory are his beloved wife, Bopha Chan Hough of Weatherford, Texas, originally from Wichita, Kansas; children, Grace, Andrew and Amelia Hough; parents, Clarence "Mickey" and Edith Hough; siblings, Katy Davidson and Fred Hough; and many other loved ones. 

  Andy will be deeply missed by his family, friends, and all whose lives he touched. His warm smile and caring nature will forever remain in the hearts of those who had the privilege of knowing him. 

  A memorial service honoring Andy's life will be held at Cross Timbers Bible Church, on August 16, 2024, at 10:00 a.m. The family encourages friends attending to wear Hawaiian shirts at the memorial in honor of his sense of humor and incredible fashion sense. He will be laid to rest at the Dallas-Fort Worth National Cemetery, in Dallas, Texas, later that afternoon at 3:15 p.m. For the afternoon interment, a change to semi-formal wear is requested. 

  In this time of sorrow, may we find solace in the memories we shared with Andrew Stanton Hough – a man whose kindness and love knew no bounds.
