Andrea Anne Wengert-Muratet

Our first Valentines Day apart. I carry you in my heart everywhere I go but I would rather have you physically here on earth with me. Love you forever.

When she would come down to san
diego from morrow bay and spend time with us

Probably our most profound moment was when Annie shifted her focus to approaching death as a new chapter of adventure. None of us truly know what becomes of us after our body is finished, but Annie had made peace with her upcoming transition and told me, "Don´t know where I´m going but it´s gonna be an adventure!"

I first met Andrea in 1983 when she auditioned for a performing group at Singer's Workshop. She had a strong voice and a talent for harmony which put her in just about every group I ever produced: As Time Goes By (40's jazz quintet), Cherry Cola (50's Rock), Flower Power Revival (60's pop), Fish Schtick (sea theme), Witch's Brew (Halloween Revue) and several Christmas Caroling groups. For almost 20 years we had a ball. In 40's garb we opened for a Michael McDonald performance and sang at the Southwest Emmy Awards. As the wicked witch in our Halloween show she did her own green makeup including a fake nose which flew off during a taping for Cox Cable. Off stage, Andrea was a dear friend. She graced every birthday celebration and as usual was always the life of the party. Our group was like a family over the years and I will miss her like a sister.
