Bert, Irby, I am so sorry to hear of the loss of Andre. I am shocked that one so young is gone. He worked with me at Saint Aug, and we treated him like a son of our class. You have our deepst condolences and sympathy.

Andre, you taught me the inherent importance of truly living each day, in one moment at a time. You convinced me of the belief that in the hardest of times, there's always a beacon of light to travel toward. You helped me see the path may not be clearcut or easy, but the hardest lessons learned make you a better person in the end. You opened my eyes to the power of the Universe and the peace that embracing spirituality can bring a person. All of these lessons will be carried in my heart, my soul and my spirit... For all of this, thank you Andre.
