Andy is one of the good ones. So sorry he had to leave. Huge heart, great friend, and the best doggy "dad" ever. I will miss him, and I will never forget al the great times growing up and in school. He made it all worthwhile. He was a kind gentle soul who truly got what life was all about. RIP Andy, and my condolences to your family. Will see you again brother, your signature is forever on my basement wall here with me. Traci

Andy, I’m deeply saddened to learn the news of your passing and wish you eternal peace and comfort to your entire family and many friends. Seeing you almost every day during our school days, and far too sporadically over the past several years, I always looked forward to spending time with you because I always knew there would be side splitting laughter and something memorable to cherish. You were a living example of the term kind soul, as you only had good intentions for everyone you met and never had a harsh word for anyone. God bless you and may you rest in peace Andy.

Dear Lonnie, Rachel, Josh, Eileen & John, Kathleen & Howard,
I was so sad to hear abut Andrew leaving us here on earth to go to be with all those who have gone before us. I know my mom was happy to see him! I remember his kindness, especially when he came to visit my mom when she was in hospice.
Ralph and I are sending lots of love and prayers.
May God's peace and comfort surround you,
Ralph and Sharon
