Andrew was one of my first true friends, someone that I loved like a brother and spent so many days with after school. His family has always been so kind to me and Andrew most of all. It's heartbreaking to think about him being gone, but I know I am a better person for having known him and that I'm positively not the only one that can say that. Always in our hearts.

I went to school with Andrew and have very fond memories of the time I spent with Andrew from the awesome music mixes hed burn for us back when cds were 20$ to buy in store to playing war games around his neighborhood. He always had a smile on his face and laughter in his heart. My life, and the lives of everyone he came into contact with are a little brighter for having known him. May he Rest In Peace

My family loves yours. The formative early days of scouts, elementary school and vacations melted us together like the candles we made on the beach one spring break. We laughed and languish the memories of our times together. He had a unique way of being understood. He thought about things different sometimes and he was taught to trust in that by his wonderful parents. It is an enormous loss for them and we pray for peace for them. Andrew is with us all and we ache to help his family know how much we loved him and them.

Sue - I imagine there is no pain more far-reaching and deeper than losing a child. Our hearts and prayers go out to you and all of Andrew's family at this most difficult time - Jim & Jim

I remember Andrew as being very bright, sociable, good humored, polite and very kind. I still cant comprehend why or how something like his passing could happen. My heart aches for him, for his friends, and especially his family. Should there be any comfort, it is in knowing that grandma is there with Andrew. They were comfort for each other. Ill always remember his kindness for her, and gentleness being there any time gram needed help. It is her turn now, and she will gently be there taking care of him. He loved each and every one of you. My thoughts, prayers and love goes out to all his family. There are no words we can say, but we hope in time, comfort and peace will come to all of you. Our special loving thoughts and prayers to Sue and Michael. May you be comfort for each other.

I met Andrew a year ago and spent time with him the last couple of months. He was a one of a kind guy with a big heart and cared a lot about his friends and family. I'm glad that he was a part of my life even though my time with him was very short. My condolences goes out to all of his family and friends. We will all miss him.

Here are a few Family photos of Andrew if anyone has more please add them I'd really like to see some more recent ones. Andrew was an extremely intelligent bright soul who had a passion for life and knowledge. He could debate with the best of them. He loved nature, music and the Japanese culture among many other interests. Today March 6th would have been his 27th birthday. We still don't have answers on how he passed all i know is that it was too way soon especially for someone so young. I have a lot of I wish...I should have....if only...and whys running around in my head. All i know for certain is that I love you Andrew you will always be my little cousin and knowing you and grandma are together puts me just a little more at ease because you will be well taken care of and you are not alone. You had some great friends and touched so many lives in Illinois and Maine. This is just so hard. We all miss and love you Andrew. We will meet again one day so save me a spot up there little cousin I will always remember the good times we shared.
