Andrea was a very independent and private person. She had a lifelong love for dogs and treated them like family.

Andrea attended Webster High School and later pursued higher education at the University of Tulsa. She had a successful career as an accountant, specializing in gas and oil leases, general accounting, and working on the SAP project. She began her career at Amoco and worked in Tulsa, Houston, and Chicago. Following the BP Amoco merger, Andrea transitioned to Accenture. She later joined DCP Midstream, working in Houston, Tulsa, and Denver.
Andrea was preceded in death by her parents, Andy J and Eloise Warren, her maternal grandparents Ray and Isadora Whitmeyer, and her paternal grandparents Joseph and Ethel Warren. She is survived by her sister, Julianne Warren, her aunt Paula Foster, her three best friends Lisa McElroy, Pam Downey, and Karen Lafitte, as well as her adopted niece Samantha McElroy.
