We have some very nice memories of Andy when both you girls were young. He was a very "good" father and husband. Just remember that he is watching over you even though you cannot see him. With regrets for the family's loss. Aunt Penny and Uncle Jim.

To Pam, Tamar, Aunt Ruth Ann, Pat (his 2nd wife) his grand- and great-grand children, his surviving sisters and
brothers, his nieces, nephews and many
many more other serviving family members and friends, my prayers go out to you all during this time of grieving. I have many wonderful memories of Uncle Andy, and Aunt Ruth Anna, (as a young girl growning up in our very large family and into my adult years..Uncle Andy is with the
Lord now. All of our loved ones were waiting for him at the River that flows by the throne of God...when
Uncle Andy entered into his eternal home. He was always loving no matter how long it had been since the last time he saw you. He was blessed with
a wonderful smile ..He always had a
kind word when he would see you. He would give you a big teddy bear hug and
would always give you a compliment and make you feel special. :) He taught me how to dance to Rock and Roll music in the late 50's lwhen I was around 10
years old. There is too,too much to write about. The most importantly we all loved him and he showed his love to all of us! I want to Praise God for
allowing me to be part of this very
LARGE loveing family. Uncle Andy is now among all of our loved ones that
we will miss at our family reunions; they are all living in our hearts... Love you uncle Andy, we will be with you and all the others one day never to be seperated from one another again. Praise God for hope and for the renewed healthy bodies we will recieve at our resurection. Uncle Andy is whole again and will never face pain or sickness again. Call me if you need anything! I will see you all during the services. Love you all and
God bless you all with comfort and peace. Love Ruthie, aka: your cousin and niece.
