I'm so sorry, for your great lost, but remember to lose is to gain. To be absent from the body , is to be present with God. My heart, thoughts and comforting prayers are with you and your family. It's never easy to lose a child, I lost my son a year ago, and I feel and understand your pain . Keep the faith and stand on Gods words and find peace and strength from the promises of The Lord . Cherish and hold close to your heart the beautiful years God allowed and shared his life with you and many others while on this earth ,keep him alive deep in your heart through the bond of a mother with her child and keep all the most priceless gifts of the memories of his birth and life milestones. Remember you are never alone , the power of a loving God will heal and mend your brokenness and The Lord will give you beauty for your ashes . Keep the faith my sister in The Lord and know I'm here and praying for strength and healing into your heart. My prayers , thoughts and love of support are with you at this time. One last thing, know this my sister, God never makes mistakes, we don't understand and dont know why our sons were called home so early, but God has the master plans and blue prints of our life and our children lifes too. God needed his angels with him to help prepare for the coming of the lord , so he called our sons home to be in his army of our lord , God and saving grace. I leave you peace that transcends all understanding even in a mist of a great storm, know that its stillness and peace in the eye of the storm look to the heavens for which cometh your help and peace, it comes from the lord.

My condolences to the family. Andrew and my daughter were friends and her heart has been crushed since she learned of his passing. While we never understand untimely deaths, we do know that he is safe now from all hurt, harm, and danger. Find strength in God and keep his legacy alive through your love.

Blessed are those that mourn, for they shall be comforted - Matthew 5:4
Andrew was a student in my english class two years ago. early on, I found him to be a very capable and quick -witted student with a unique, charasmatic, and charming personality. he could make you laugh and better yet, he could make you laugh at yourself. he was also a very perceptive young man who possessed a great deal of wisdom for one so young.
Every one loved Andrew.
The last time I saw him in his senior year, he was so happy to be admitted into college. I was so happy for him because that was a goal that he set for himself among several and I was so glad tht he achieved that goal. He shared with me that he was happy to make his mother proud.
Andrew was a sweet person, so full of joy and life! He will never be forgotten and he will be missed!
It is my prayer that God will continue to bless and keep you as you go through the loss of one so dear!
Praying for you always,
Mrs. Patricia Coleman

As a longtime friend of Austin and Alfred I watched little Andrew grow up from his childhood. He was full of joy and just wanted to be around his older brothers! He had such a happy and joyful soul! He is blessed and now with the lord in his time of rest. May God bless this family and help them through such a hard time. Much Love and Respect!!

Alfred and Family, I send my most sincere condolences to you for such a great loss. I will continue keeping you in prayer. Know that this will be trying times for each of you in your own way. Never look at the "What if" or question what you could have done, but instead cherish the good times and moments you all shared together. There will be good/bad days, so lean on friends and family in your time of grief. Stay strong and know that time heals all wounds. Let The Lord be your shepherd and guide in your time of need.
