Andrea was a kind and sweet person. She had a quietness about her but always full of fun. I enjoyed the short time I worked with her before she moved to CVICU. My prayers are with her husband and Tyson, both who she adored. May she rest in peace.

What sad news, I was fortunate to know Andrea through her High School years, and Softball playing years. I coached mostly against Andrea, as the coach of the "Sawyers" in the Catskill Little League Girls Softball, as Andrea was one of the pioneering players, who played for the "Palenville F.D." team, and who started the league at our inception. She was one of the brightest players with personality to spare and a very intelligent sense of humor, who always had us in stitches. Because of the great play of Andrea, and her teammates we survived to continue those first rocky years. Andrea was much to young to leave us. My stepdaughters (Jessica and Cabrina)were Catskill alumni with Andrea and Larry, and we are all shocked at such a sad loss, of someone who certainly was an unforgettable bright light, that burned bright and went out way to soon. Please except my and my families condolences to Larry, and Andrea's family and friends, and may Andrea rest in God's eternal peace.
