Andrew A. Bigmeat

I thank God for the blessing of Andy's friendship in my life. He always had a way of making someone feel special no matter what mood they were in. He enriched the lives of all he met through his kindness and acceptance...Andy was truly an "every" man. My prayers and thoughts go out to his family and three children who I know meant a great deal to him. You, too, Andy were my "mon' ami".

I was starting to get close to Andy after I left to go to college. My only memory of Andy is from work. Everyday that He worked he was always a few minutes late. I picked on him for that. I do know that he had two nicknames for me, but I remember what they were. I know that the first one I really didn't like, but the second one I thought it was funny. I will miss Andy a great deal.

The one word for you, Andy, is touch. You've touched so many in different ways. Friends, coworkers, and customers all got to see a new side of you. Even our children felt that you cared for all of them. Your passing leaves a void in many lives. We loved you. We miss you.

I'm so sorry to hear of Andy's passing. It's been many years ago that we all hung out together in high school. There are many fond memories of all of us skipping school and heading out to lake, or sneaking over to Happy Hollow for the day. Those special times with friends is memories that never fade. My sympathy and prayers go out to his family and friends.
