I met him as a "work brother" and then his family embraced my family and the rest is history. Drew kept me motivated in life and although he is resting in paradise, it has been a hard pill to swallow that he has gone from this earth. Missing my brother but remembering all that he said to me. Rest on Drew....we love and miss ya!!

Andrew was the "brother" I found when I started working at Augusta Tech. We became close as did our families. This has been the hardest thing for me to accept... he was a great man and people loved him for the kind and caring demeanor he had. Pat and family my heart goes out to all of you and know that Jay, me, the kids, and Pepper are here as always. We love you and will miss Andrew something awful. Andrew thanks for the talks when I needed them and the guidance at work. Rest in paradise...District 5 and the world was blessed!

Mr. Jefferson was my instructor
in 2007 when I graduated from
Augusta Tech. He taught me a lot
about electric construction.
(We) his former students from
the class of 2007 will miss him.
I STILL went to see him even
after I left A.T.
My deepest sense of SORROW
goes out to Mrs. Jefferson &
Family even though I didn't
know them personally. He
will be missed.
Goodbye my instructor!
I'll always remember you.

Pat, we pray that God will continue to give you, your sons, your mother-in-law, and other close family members strength to withstand the pain of losing a great man - your husband, their father, her son, and a wonderful friend to those who knew him.
Andrew, Sr., was a remarkable mentor and little league baseball coach to our son. Our hearts are heavily-laden with the thought of him no longer living amongst us. Keep the faith. Peace be with you during this tempestuous moment. Everlasting joy will come in the morning!

Pat, it is my prayer that God grants you and family the exact measure of peace, understanding and strength needed to sustain you during this most difficult time. I considered Andrew first a friend, a colleague, one of my favorite Sunday School students, and my commissioner, even though I lived in a different district. He was never too busy to listen to concerns for the community and worked to address them. Take comfort in knowing that his was a life lived well in service to family and others. We will miss him.

Thoughts and prayers to Andrew's family. I had the honor of getting to know him through the 2012-2013 Leadership Augusta class. What an honor that was! Andrew always had a kind word, a vibrant sense of humor, and the great "radio voice" that made us laugh just when we needed it. His love of family and service to the community always showed. And his impact continues.

To the Jefferson family, Words are inadequate to express our sympathy for the loss of such a kind, friendly and sweet person. I first met Andrew while attending Glenn Hills High School and as a fellow ROTC cadet. There was never a day that he didn't make you smile even when you didn't feel like it. It's hard to believe that his bright smile and kind hearted will no longer be with us. I would like to say thank you for sharing Andrew with me, my family and many other natives from the Augusta, Georgia area and thank God for blessing all of us with His son. Our prayers are with the family and praying God wrap His loving arms around you all with His love and comfort during your time of loss. May God bless each of you during your loss. Rest in peace with the Father In Heaven Andrew Jefferson. #GoneButNotForgotten

To the Jefferson Family:
It is hard to believe that we won't see Andrew's infectious smile or hear his velvet voice on the campus of Augusta Tech ever again. Andrew was a co-worker, a leader and most of all, a friend. He will forever in our circle of friends' memories hold the title of "Augusta Tech After Dark." May you find comfort in the memories of friends and family during this most difficult time.
Respectfully,
