I knew Andrea when we were kids. Back then she would call me every so often (way before caller ID) and say " I bet you don't know who this is" and when I would say "Hi Andrea", she could never figure out how I knew it was her. She was a fun loving sweet girl and in reading about her, I see that is still true. She will always be remembered with love and laughter. I am so sorry for your loss.

I was so sad to hear of Andrea's passing. It has been years since I have seen her, but my mother has always updated me on what a great fight she put up. She used to come to our family reunion in Alleghany. We had so much fun together, she always had us laughing. You all have a very special angel watching over all of you. Keeping you all in my thoughts and prayers.

I am very sorry for your loss. Andrea was a strong, wonderful person who always seemed to have a zest for life, even back in high school. She was very thoughtful and expressed her sorrow when she learned of my husband's death from cancer. After all that she herself was enduring, she still was focusing on someone besides herself. My heartfelt prayers go out to her family during this time. God bless you all.

An was a part of our family. I will forever be indebted to her for filling my girls with her wonderful sense of fun, imagination and humor. Camryn said she was the happiest person she ever met. Kaelyn enjoyed An at her wildest...partying with the "crazy Germans" at our house. An would lead the "dance parties" that Kaelyn would eventually take to a new level. Andrea would take my little curly headed blonde to all the Pizzuto parties because she was all about including everyone. Personally, she was my favorite woman to share "scoops" with. Laughs were non-stop and spontaneous. That was the essence of Andrea.
Owen, Kaelyn, Camryn and I loved her.

To Ann, Joe, Kiss, Alex,Benji, and the entire Pizzuto Family... I am so happy that I got to reconnect with you and Andrea and feel so blessed that i got to see her last month in her favorite place in the world. I can still hear her laugh and will miss her so much. Our prayers are with you all.

October 7, 2011

May this special angel always watch over you and keep all the family from hurting. An was a very special person and will never be forgotten.Lots of love and hugs go out to the family.

I remember the first time I met An. I thought- she has Buffalo rock star status--this girl knows everyone! It's because her spirit was so full of love, happiness, and joy. She could create a party out of babysitting. Her laugh was infectious. Her spirit lives on when I think of the moments I have shared with her. Mr.& Mrs. Pizzuto, Kiss, Alex, Benji and all her family and friends---may you find peace during this difficult time. With Love

Carol and I lit a candle for Andrea at ST Louis Cathedral in New Orleans. She will always be special to everyone who knew her.

Andrea and her friends used to come visit my roommates and I every weekend at RIT in the early 90's. She was a wonderful human being with an outstanding personality. I'll never forget how much we looked forward to her arrival every Friday with food and friends. She was a modern-day saint-God Bless.
