Andrew Wilson SILVERTHORNE

1975 - 2024

It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of Andrew Wilson Silverthorne, on September 5, 2024, at only 48 years of age. Family and friends meant everything to Andrew. He was a loving husband to Julie for ten years, and lived with their three cats, Morty, Eva and Loki. A loving son to Dale and Roger; and son-in-law to Dolly and Bernie McKenna. He was an adoring brother to Tara; and brother-in-law to Carolyn (Scott) and Peter (Briana). An uncle to Joseph, Benjamin, and Austin. Andrew was a loving nephew to many aunts and uncles on both the Silverthorne and McKenna sides of the family. Andrew was born in St. Catharines on November 19, 1975, moving to Toronto and Montreal before moving back to Toronto. During the past two years, he and Julie have lived in Michigan. Andrew was a graduate from Lawrence Park Collegiate, where he established many strong friendships which still exist today. Andrew was a gentle giant with a great sense of humour and an infectious laugh. His kindness and love were felt by everyone, be they family, friends or coworkers. His bear hugs were legendary. Andrew will be greatly missed, loved every day, and will always be in our hearts.
