I just found out, yes, Ken was an amazing teacher. He helped me survive the early 70's. He opened my mind, so I could explore who I really was. I look forward to seeing him in heaven. For now I have many memories.

I only knew Ken briefly and he will be missed by staff and residents at Maplecreek. He was an amazing man and I feel honored to not only care for him but to meet such an outstanding immediate and extended family. I am sure the gates to Heaven opened Wide to Welcome him home. I would like to thank each of you for allowing me to care for Ken.Thoughts and Blessings to all of you

I always looked forward to Mr. Andree's classes. I also enjoyed my time on the debate team with him as a coach. Years later, I attended several meetings with him related to social justice issues and saw how deep his passion was for others. Blessing to his family.

I had Mr. Andree as a teacher in the late 80's and early 90's. He was the best teacher I had! He encouraged all of his students to think for themselves and not be afraid to do so. His love of teaching and working with people was evident each day as he would smile at us and begin class. I will never forget sneaking Little Caesar's pizzas through his window at lunchtime because we were not allowed to bring outside food into the school.

My thoughts and prayers are with you and your...

Condolences to Mr. Andree's family. I had Mr. Andree as a teacher back in the 70s and his classes were always full of fun and learning, and were a bright spot in the day.

Our condolences are offered to Jean and the rest of your family. It's been many years since we've seen each other, but we enjoyed the times we did. He was a good and Godly man. Our thoughts and prayers go with you.
