Lieutenant Commander Andrew Finch "Drew" Hilliard

I did not know that Drew passed away till I saw a posting Facebook. Evidently he was friends with Cash Motor and I was looking at some family photos and saw this post . We were out of town and I'm so sorry we weren't here . Our thoughts and prayers go to you and Frank as well as all of the family . Love Laura Raine Abbott

Drew,
As a fellow ex- Naval Officer and an osteosarcoma patient continuing your battle, I can only stand and salute your spirit,your Soul and wish you the best in your After life.

I thank you for the few exchanges we had online.

God Bless!

To the Hilliard Family
So very sorry for your loss. I did not have the pleasure of teaching Drew, but If anything like Tim, what wonderful sons! May God bless and comfort you during this most difficult time.

What a wonderful and meaningful life Drew had but my heart is so sad that is was much too short. There are no words to say that will lighten your burden but just know you are loved and I will say prayers for courage, strength and peace for all of you in the days to come.

My prayers and condolences go out to the family of Drew. So sad to see someone leave this earth at a young age. I remember always being kind and smiling.

I am sure Drew now knows how far his reach is and how many friends of family as well as friends of friends were inspired by him, were concerned for him, and prayed for him. I never met Drew in person, but I am friends with some of his extended family members. I could see how loved he was and is, and for many, many good reasons!!! Thank you so much Drew for making this world such a better place through the continuing and expanding reach of your character and actions.
