Hannah, I couldn't believe it when I stopped in to say hi today. Because BossMan and I spend so much time at Hospice House, I very carefully read the obits in the Star. Went back to this one that had haunted me. Our hearts broke in two. We hug you, girl, and wish we could help you in some way. Know you are totally in our thoughts and prayers.

I knew Andrew in college, as I worked for the football team. He was always very kind and respectful. One of my favorite players to be around.

Doesn't seem possible or real. God had a higher plan, although at this moment it escapes me what it could be. We were blessed to have known Andrew, as well as the entire Erker family as next door neighbors for 5 years. We're broken hearted for the family, and will keep all in our prayers as you grow through this pain. Our love and respect, always, Steve, Marian, Staci, and Drew Houser.
One of our favorite memories: Our Drew and Andrew "fishing" from the boat in our garage, and actually "catching" our yorkie in the lip with lure we had left on one of the kids fishing rods....Tom came to the rescue, but the look on the boys faces was priceless! RIP

My thoughts and prayers are with the family during this difficult time. I hope that the promise in 1 Thessalonians 4:14 can bring comfort. Knowing that there is a hope for our love ones lost in death can be reassuring.

I knew Andrew back in college. His smile, laugh, and humor were my favorite things about him. The world has lost a wonderful man.
