Susie & Larry, there are no words to describe your feelings or the pain you are experiencing. As friends we can only let you know that we care and are here for you in body and in prayer. The peace that is to come is in knowing Drew is in the loving arms of our Lord and experiencing the wonder of this eternal Eden. Drew left an impression on many who will carry his smile on for others to enjoy. God bless you both. Tom Grimes

Susan & Larry....When you are ready, I need you now as much as you need my "experience". Don't worry, my "Graigo" is welcoming "Drew Man" into heaven with open arms and showing him the ropes. Will there be "trouble in paradise" with those two? Naw, they are both loving, sweet, caring and beautiful kids that will fit right in with the rest of the angels. They will be by our sides always... now and until we can be with them again there. They are so lucky! Call me, I'm here for you and I send my LOVE and prayers my friends!!

April 11, 2010

If tears could build a stairway and memories were a lane,
We would walk all the way to Heaven, to bring you home again
No farewell words were spoken, no time to say good-bye
You were gone before we knew it, and only God knows why
Our hearts ache in sadness, and secret tears will flow
What is meant to lose you, no one will ever know

Larry, Susan & Judd,

We are truly going to miss our "Drew Man". We have so many wonderful memories of Drew throughout the years. We have never met anyone with such a HUGE heart, and we smile everytime I think of him. Drew taught all of us, that know matter where we come from, everyone is deserving of love and kindess! Just think what a world we would live in, if everyone thought like that. R.I.P. my "Sweet Cuz", we will always love you, "fat legs". Charlie and Connie Hickman
