I'll never forget the sheer joy Andrew expressed and created each year reading to the children of ANDRUS at Christmas time. He always made the time to bring warmth and love into their lives and they always looked forward to it. Thank you, Andy!

Had the pleasure of knowing Andy since 2006 through his volunteering at the Hansen Nature Center. Not only was he a fixture at our annual Christmas event, but also a supporter of the park and a friend. He will be missed.
