Our deepest sympathies to Kelly and Atticus, Roan, Finn, and Beckett. God's Ways are not our way and we can not understand
why our loved one's are taken from us in such an untimely way.
Andrew will surely continue to be an inspiration to you for years to come and always remain in your hearts. Andrew's mother and I have been friends for over forty years, and she has spoken lovinglying of Andrew and the entire family on many occasions.
