Andy I've known you since you were a little guy. You were always happy and joking around all the time. Going fishing and chasing the pretty girls were your hobbies. You had a heart of gold and let it shine for the people you loved. You helped everyone that needed help no matter what you had to do! You been through alot in your life and picked yourself up and continued on. My heart is broken. You had so many dreams and all was taken away..
