I really don't remember Ted, but my parents, Elton and Eris Newsom, were in the church with Ted and his family in Harvey, Illinois. The church, Calvary Temple Assembly of God Church, was the place to meet great people and the Andrachs and Bers were at the top of the list. My grandmother, Rev. Dottie Upton, was an Assembly of God minister in Louisiana and she introduced Ted to her congregation and other churches in Louisiana . He enjoyed preaching in the South. Judith Newsom Truelove

It's been years since I've seen Pastor Andrach but I've thought of him and Pearl often. What a holy and humble man he was. He loved the Lord so much and now it can be celebrated that his earthly job is over and his real Christian retirement can begin! Much love and blessings to Pearl, Linnea and family. I'll be praying for all to feel peace and understanding in this difficult time.

I will miss my Grandfather. It has been so long since I last saw him, and I regret that, but he was forever in my thoughts and he will remain in my heart. Always.

I love you all and I wish I could be there.

Dear Andrachs,

In the midst of our grief, what a joy to know that Uncle Ted is with the Lord joining my Mom and Dad, Shirley and Stanley and the rest of his loved ones who have passed on before.
He has run the good race and now can enjoy the ultimate prize, eternity with Christ! What a blessed assurance as Christians to know that we will soon join him and have fellowship forever in Heaven.
Please know that our thought and prayers are with you during this time.

In Christ,

Doug Ber and Family

I remember helping Rev. Andrach record his radio show back in the 1970's when he was with Evangelical Full Gospel Chuch on American Street.

Peace be with your family during this time of sorrow.
