Andrew W. O'Keefe

Dear O'Keefe Family,

There are times when you wish you could say all the right words to make something better, but this is one of those sour moments in life, where no words can express your thoughts to make a moment seem better. It is like "putting whipcream on an onion" as I once heard said.

I often think of Andy and what a wonderful person he was not only to his wife and his family, but to his friends, co workers and even strangers. He was always welcoming and willing to...

It has almost been a month and I do not know what to say. So, I am just going to say, I love you and will miss you very much. One more Who Day! and Go Reds! from me to you. Love your Cincy family.

Andy,
I can't keep thinking of our final kiss goodbye. GOD must of needed a beautiful red head to take you so soon. Do you know it rained for a week after your funeral? Tears, from Tara, Aunt Ann, Grandma Knothead and baby TimO for joining them to soon. Your at peace.

I'll love you forever.
Kelly

MERRY CHRISTMAS
Andy, words can't say how i feel about the loss of you, so soon after my sister tara, i thought you would still be here for years to come. but i now know that was'nt to be you will always hold a place in my heart, just for all the kind things you did. i will never forget you and just like i said in to my sister, i always keep my cards and here is what your card said.
WHEN SANTA WORKS HIS MAGIC,
THE FUN CAN REALLY START... FOR WHEN WE WAKE UP CHRISTMAS...

I was shocked and saddened to hear of Andy's passing. I really enjoyed having you in classes at Byrnedale and Bowsher, you definitely made the classroom less boring. Deepest sympathies to the family and close friends who survive... but Andy will be with you always.

Andy,
I hope you are at peace with your wife and your mom.
I'll never forget you.
You were one of the most important people to me in Junior High and High School, when we were just kids.
I'm so glad you were happy for so long with Tara.
You have forever now.
Amy

Well it has been over a week and i think it is finally sinking in for me and i just can't beleive you are gone.I admired you so much in your relationship with my sister and the love you had for her and i used that with my own relationship with my Tara and when you find that kind of love you do whatever you can to hang onto it and cherish it and that is what i have done.I will miss our latenight talks and are early saturday morning debates on how Ohio State sucks and you telling me that...

To the O'Keefe Family, I am very sorry for the loss of your brother/son and my brother-in-law, Andy. I didn't know Andy as well as I probably should have.
The one thing I do know about Andy is that he loved my sister very much. It makes me sad to know that two people who were so young are now gone forever. I do believe that Tara and Andy have been reunited in Heaven and will be waiting patiently for the rest of us to join them someday. Always remember to speak the love you all feel for...

My Deepest Sympathy to the family of Andy O'Keefe.
