I think about you all the time Andy. Sometimes I cry and other times your happy spirit makes me smile. I love you so much dear cousin. We will be together again one day.
Rodney and all of your fanily, your uncle Gene and I grieve for you all. I never met Andy, but he sounds like someone that would have been fun to know.I am sorry that I never had the opertunity. I know I mispelled the last word. Your uncle Gene is doing well. He is down stairs, else he would be writing also. God bless you all. Estelle
Despite the fact that your California aunt only saw you annually, I felt a very special bond toward you. I suppose it's because we squeezed so much into those 10 days each year. Disneyland, in particular, was so much fun with you. Through the years, your humor has lifted my spirits; your kindness toward my family and me has warmed my soul. Your intelligence, openness, and imagination made you such a fascinating person. You made my life richer. Mariah and Ava were so blessed to have you as their father. May they keep those wonderful memories that you lovingly created. You were my first nephew and my last dance at my wedding. You'll always be in my heart, Drew. Love you.
Mariah and Ava, I will miss your daddy very much. There are lots of things I will remember about him, like his sense of humor and his hats. But mostly I will remember how very much he loved you both and how proud he was to be your dad. Being a teacher I get to meet lots of moms and dads. Yours are very special. I know that you have many good memories of your dad. Keep those close to your hearts. Sometimes the people we love die, but the love we share with them never does. You will always be my special girls and I love you very much.
Despite having known him as we grew into adults, Andy was always my charming and goofy friend from 5th grade. He made it cool to be smart. I am so thankful my husband and kids got to know him these past few years. He was a huge support of our family's efforts at fighting Type 1 Diabetes, and one day my daughter will get that service dog he wanted to train for her. Our hearts are heavy with sadness, especially for his beloved little girls. It takes a very special person to positively touch as many people as he did. Love and comfort to his family.
Born during a tornado-I remember it well. What a cute little boy you were. We have some fond memories of you and fun times with your parents. Our heart breaks for your wife, children, sister and of course Rod and Theresa. Rest in peace with your Mom nearby. Love to the family, Max and Pam
May your memories stay strong and close to your heart as you move through the months and years ahead. I am so very sorry for this family loss.
We were so sorry to hear about Andy. Our thoughts and prayers are with you all.
