Andrea was such a beautiful person. We were lucky enough to get to know her personally and count her as a friend. We met her at some of the We first met her at the National Down Syndrome Society Convention when our son was very young. events that our son Kevin participated in. He also has Down syndrome, and was very much encouraged by Andrea. Andrea was a wonderful actress, and advocate for those that have Down syndrome, and their families as well. May she fly with the angels. May her memory always be a blessing. Much love to her family and all of her friends that are missing her.

I shall miss Andrea very much. The last time that I saw her was when she was a keynote speaker at the Supported Life Institute Conference in Sacramento. Her parents picked both Andrea and me up from LAX and dropped me off at the parking lot of my former job. There, we both hugged and kissed each other on the cheeks. Her spirit will be with me still. I had admired her for her UP Sundrome spirit. God bless her soul. I miss her very much.
