I still struggle with the thought of living this life without you physically here. Your loss has been by far the toughest heart break I have known. My heart weighs heavy when thinking of you. Here's to a one of a kind uncle.

The guys in my group tried to cheer me up
They culd tell I was SAD!! I went to
get you some flameless candles and some
solar lights to light up the night for
you. To help keep your spirit alive.
Its hard for me to go to the cross, but
I will go for you bro. We all bowled for you Saturday, it was good but I missed
you, I miss you all the time Andrew
I cry, its still hard with out you.
Tony fixed the hot tub and I always

Gilbert and I went to the Korn concert last night. They rocked! You were in my thoughts. They played "Another brick in the wall". Remember blasting that song as loud as we could on the freeway on our job search for you...Hahaha...that was one heck of a ride..."All in all it's just another brick in the wall!"

Andrew,

I am kicking major butt at bowling! I bowled a 195 the other night, and my goal is a 200 game. At that point, I will consider joining a league, and I will wear green to remember how much I love you! I wish you were here to bowl with me and show me all of your skills. I love you Uncle Andrew.

Whoever said time heals was mistaken. The wound is much too deep, the scar way too wide and the loss far too great with an uncle like Andrew who can never be replaced.

Jason

September 5, 2011

Well Andrew, time has passed, and id like to say time has healed some wounds, but i cant. At least in my own personal life, everything was destroyed, little by little. Its crazy to know how important of a friend you were to me. You were there for me when life was rough, and when life was good. Well life is rough friend, and in all reality i lost sight of who i am. So till another day, i shake your hand, and tip my cap, and i will always give you and your family the respect they deserve. I miss you bro

August 19, 2011

Uncle Andrew,
You are in our thoughts today. I remember catching the bouquet at the wedding and hoping to find what you and Jess have. All you need is LOVE! I also remember dancing with you and stepping on your foot; sorry Uncle Andrew! :) I love and miss you!

If we could bring you back again,
For one more hour or day,
We'd express all our unspoken love;
We'd have countless things to say.
We'd say we treasured you,
And that your presence in our lives meant more than we ever knew. We miss you!

We thought of you with love today,
but that is nothing new.
We thought about you yesterday,
And days before that too.
We think of you in silence.
We often speak your name.
Now all we have is memories,
And your picture in a frame.
Your memory is our keepsake,
With which we'll never part.
God has you in his keeping,
We have you in our hearts!

Dawn Clear

A person dies only once, but the loved ones they leave behind, live that loss every day.
We were in Sedona yesterday and I thought of you and the famiy at Grasshopper Point and Slide Rock. So much energy -so much life. We go on, taking you with us in our thoughts and hearts. Love you, MOM

July 10, 2011

I always find myself thinking what life would be like if you were still here. It's something I try not to dwell on, but this is how my life has been. The lows are extremely low, but it's just something that you learn to accept. I try to carry you with me and bring you into the present. It helps fill the hole in my heart. I miss you Andrew more and more as each day passes. I love you.

Grief is like a scab that never heals. Right when it starts to feel better it gets ripped off again and the cycle of the never healing wound starts again.

Ahem. Andrew, Melissa is mistaken. Where there's smoke, there's fire. "If you grill it, they will come." "And they came, like moths to the flames." But I tamed those flames in your honor. :) Seriously though, ... I would have given anything for you to be standing beside me by that grill. I love and miss you brother!

Melissa Mercado

April 24, 2011

Happy Easter Uncle Andrew. We had a nice BBQ at Faith and Dave's house. David smoked us out on the grill. We could of really used you today to tame the flame. The weather was awesome! Something was definitely missing though......You

Andrew, the concert was incredible and we were blessed to do something like that as a family. I know you were watching us. Also, Im sure you are laughing because I bowled terribly today, even the kids beat me. Anyhow, I miss you and hope that you watch over us all and keep us safe and happy. I hope you like the flowers that mom and I picked out for your grave. Through all this, we have become stronger than ever as a family, as well as on our own. I love you.

Rest in Peace uncle Andrew. This last year has been hard on everyone but that one of a kind laugh you had always stays with me. Just seems like yesterday this horrible event happened and the pain inside my heart throbs and I know it will never go away. Losing you really changed life for the entire family and made us even closer. I can't wait to see you one day again in Heaven but until then please watch over us for now you are our guardian ANGEL!

This will be a difficult week-end. .Almost as hard as the one a year ago. Last year we had the confort of shock but this week-end hard cold reality is our companion. I am glad this year is behind us and not ahead. It seems impossible it is a year since you walked into the door after work ,left the morning of the sixth never to return. I miss you Andrew . You do not have a voice but your loved ones do and we will use it for you.
Rest in peace/your strife is over. I am grateful Jessica kept this memorial alive for this year. It has been helpful. Thank you Jessica. Love you,MOM

Andrew, I know it is late and I should sleeping but I have to let you know that there has been a lot going on with JaNea and I know you see how she has been in school and around the house. She has been talking about you a lot latly and is sad at times. I am sure there is not a day that goes by that she does not think of you she has told us that she smells you perfume as she called it and it makes her sad she will absolutely not let us take her to the park where you met her boy friend which by the way its a new one now so you may want to check this one out. Please give her the strength to get through these hard time and help us be strong. Help me be strong come this friday when I have to tell her about her life and how she has a co creator please help me tell her in a way that she will see that andy is her daddy and that he has been the daddy she will ever need and please help us get her adoption done and give her the last name and the real daddy she has always had. Bryce misses you as well and is getting ready to start t-ball and we will miss you out there cheering him on. Andy has changed in a lot of way and misses you a lot he won't say it but I can see it. I miss you as well. Please continue to help jessica with all that she is going through her and janea have become closer than ever and love to be with each other we all love you have a good night flying from house to house to do head counts and to make sure we are all ok.

March 2, 2011

My love,
I am so heartbroken to know that it will be a year on Sunday that I was robbed of a life full of happiness with you. Nothing has been the same since that horrible night. That day keeps playing in my head over and over like it was just yesterday. One second we were laughing and the next you were taken away. I feel like my heart went with you. I think of you every second of every day! My love for you will never go away! I miss you so very deeply. I would do anything to get you back. I wish I could take everyones hurt away. JaNea misses you so much! She talks about you all the time. I look at pictures of you and I just cant believe this has happened. We were suppose to grow old together and raise a family. All of that is gone now. I look forward to the day I get to see your gorgeous face and feel your loving hug! I LOVE YOU!! 831!!

Your always in my thoughts. You would think being in the Funeral Business you going would be easier for me.I have found that not being my case, in fact it is harder for me. Everytime I meet with a family i have to remind myself to take a deep breathe and pul myself together. I remember the day the family came in and made your funeral arrangments my body was so numb. Then when i picked you up. It kills me everytime i have to go down to the OME office. Like i am gonna unslip the body bag and see your face again. It always knocks me off my feet. I remember that on day we were taking about how you were going to work for me one day. I can honestly say how my families feel when they call in my door, noone ever wants to see me at the Funeral Home. I miss you.

You are in my thoughts this Thanksgiving; I am thinking of the year you ate all the deviled eggs and we all laughed about it....or when we were younger and would play basketball back at the old house while we were waiting for dinner. Good times. We all love and miss you. If I get to say prayer this year I promise I will be serious this time and not go on and on......I love you!

I bought a Christmas tree with lights that stay lit and some bulbs,for your grave. I miss the Christmas lights outside not being up and lit. It seems darker then usual this Thanksgiving without you. The tears flow and I feel sad. We will get thru this somehow.Love, MOM

My heart still can not believe you are gone. I miss u more than words can express. I feel incomplete! I feel so cheated. All of this is wrong! We were suppose to grow old together! I hear the phone ring and I still think you are calling or texting me! My heart is shattered and it will never be the same! It is getting harder for me, especially cause of the holidays. I miss everything about you! My life has been turned inside out and upside down. I dont even know who I am anymore! The day I lost you was the day I lost everything! I still have nightmares of that day! I wish thats all it was, just a nightmare. Love you for eternity!!! Your wife

November 9, 2010

I miss everything about you! Baby, the pain inside of me has not went away! It is still as painfull as that day! I try to put on a happy face for everyone, cause I dont want to make them any more upset than they already are! I know you are holding me everytime I cry! Thank you baby! I feel so lost without you right next to me! The day I get to see you again, will be the best day of my life!

Ava asks about you all the time Andrew. She calls your grave your garden. She said, "Mom lets go to Andrews garden" "I miss Andrew". She also asked me if you were the angel she keeps seeing. At first i freaked out! Then my heart broke for my four year old. She really loves you Andrew. I love you too. We have an "Andrew song" its called "Save a Place for me" by Matthew West. I'm sure you can hear Ava singing it on the top of her little lungs. We miss you Andrew.

I call your cell phone, just to hear your voice.It makes me smile and i am having a bad day. I miss you very much Andrew and i wish you could come back and wipe the tears away. It breaks my heart every time i see tears in grandmas eyes. We all try and keep a smile on her face. We all feel pain but her pain is a deep and sharp pain. The lost of a second son. You were a great son and if she could i know she would be the first to tell you. We all miss and love you.

I thought of you at the concert the other day Uncle Andrew and it brought me back to how much fun you were when we went to that concert at Cricket years ago; crazy fun! I love and miss you very much. Thanks for showing the family signs that you are still with us. It means alot.
