Richard Andrews Obituary

Richard Andrews, 50, of Manchester, passed away unexpectedly on Friday, October 15, 2021. Richard is survived by his wife, Stephanie Lynn Andrews; his daughters, Amber Christine Andrews and Erica Wildfire Andrews; his grandchildren, Alianna Davis-Andrews, Alysiah Graham, and Dominic Russell; his sister, Rebecca Andrews, his niece, Donyell Andrews; a nephew, Jacob Martin; as well as other relatives and friends. Richard had slayed his demons and was three years alcohol free. He was a kind soul who gave to others when he did not have much. While there were significant struggles, he learned to build and utilize the community around him. Once sober, Richard began to assist friends in their recovery process and aspired to be a Licensed Drug and Alcohol Counselor. Richard was a loving husband, father, grandfather, uncle, and friend to many, who loved his family more than anything. He was working on reconnecting with family and friends prior to his death. Richard loved visiting Spoonville, writing, guitar, and his Harley Davidson. Cherish those around you because you never know when the last time that you see them will be. Do not cry for him, celebrate his life and his journey. His family will receive friends on Saturday, October 30, 12 p.m.-2 p.m., with a Memorial Service at 2 p.m., at Carmon Funeral Home, 807 Bloomfield Ave., Windsor. Burial will be private.

Ricky was never anything short of kind and caring to me. We were neighbors in our first apartments, and our first born children were friends as babies. We shared some words of wisdom, support, and friendship. He will forever be in our hearts....
