Andrew Huber Obituary

Published by Legacy Remembers from Dec. 19 to Dec. 20, 2005.
Huber, Andrew Patrick, 24, of Plantation, FL, passed away on Friday, December 16, 2005. Survived by his mother and father, Joan and Joseph P. Huber, of Plantation, and his sister, Marissa A. Huber, of Philadelphia, PA. Andrew was a 2000 graduate of Nova High School and was voted "most outrageous" and "most unique" by his classmates. He loved playing for a number of ice hockey teams and he perfected his technique at the goalie position. He attended both BCC and FAU in Davie. His aspiration in life was to be of service to others-especially the underdog. He loved punk and rap music, playing his guitar, dancing and singing. Andrew combined his love of outer space and political issues in the creation of his own comic book, RJDAK. Andrew's perception of the world was sometimes painful, as he saw conflict in many arenas and loved to discuss and write about it. He was a true friend indeed for anyone in need. And, he particularly liked speaking with strangers in the street, at bus stops and anyplace that a chance meeting might allow him to learn from and influence others. Several of his most beloved accomplishments were being voted MVP of his ice hockey team, receiving "The Right Stuff" award at the Kennedy Space Center Young Astronauts program, climbing to the top of the Mt. St. Helen's volcano, in Oregon, trading e-mails with his friends and watching his favorite TV shows (South Park, Dave Chapelle, The Simpsons and anything on The History Channel). Andrew was especially proud of his Irish, Welsh, German and Filipino heritage. He was a kind and beautiful soul, and will be loved and missed by all who knew him. Friends will be received on Tuesday from 10:00 AM until the service time at the T.M. Ralph Plantation Funeral Home 7001 NW 4 Street. A Prayer service will be held at 11:45 AM. In lieu of flowers, the family would greatly appreciate donations being made to The Andrew Patrick Huber Memorial Scholarship Fund, through the Broward Education Foundation. (Affiliated with the Broward County Schools) c/o Wachovia Bank, N.A., 1191 South University Dr., Plantation, FL 33324.

one humid SoFla night at the record shop Uncle Sam's

a punker did approach me to talk about some jams

wary was I at first, for he seemed intelligent yet wild

but my fears were soon allayed by the sincerity in his smile

"hey I'm from the future!!" he said with a big grin

and I knew right then n there, I'd found a true, good friend.

and this friendship will never end, though you are here no more. I'll look to the sky until I, too, die and we're jammin like before

....always love ya and miss you Andrew. say hi to Russell for me rest in peace.

I still hold our friendship dear.

in my wallet I still keep a picture of you which your mother gave me when you passed... the light of your memory will burn eternal.

you'll always be my friend, and I'll never be alone because we'll fight the you-know-what and WE'LL WIN...and that will never get Redundant ;-)

forever rest in peace, old friend. til I see you again....

i was afraid of you man. my first day of highschool, you were what i wanted to be. this cool guy with awesome jacked-up hair, sick boots, and surrounded by people who liked/admired you. it scared the crap out of me, cuz i was this little poseur guy fresh out of private school trying to play off edgy. your presence was huge to me. i would like to have taken advantage of the few times we were in the same space to have gotten to know you better. i started listening to kmfdm because you had a bunch of their shirts... i didnt even know who they were, but i wanted to, and i thought they were awesome from my first listen. i'm listening to them right now. i would like to have known you better andrew.

When we were little, we liked songs that were hits back in the day. I just heard the song "Jump" on the radio and thought of you. (and not the Van Halen version either, the cheesier one!) And your FAVORITE song was "That's what friends are for...keep smiling..keep something..knowing you can always count on me...



When we were little, mom and dad were watching an awards show on tv. The song came on and we were dancing and jumping everytime the song told us to. It was hilarious and I bet we would still have done the same thing six months ago. I miss you so very much.

To all the Hubers--

He is missed. Though we dated only briefly, there was never a dull moment. I am greatly sorry for your loss of a very unique man.

To the Huber family I send lots of love and I pray your family can find peace within all this. Andrew and I were in Keyboarding class together our senior year at Nova. He was the funniest and most honest person in the class. I also sat next to Andrew at graduation, he had me laughing the entire time. He really didn't want to be there but he did it for his mom. I also remember his mom being our BRACE advisor. She was one of only a few cool adults to Nova.

Dear Joe,Joan & Marisa,



My heart deeply aches at the loss of Andrew who I love as my very own, having been a sister to you Joan, with whom I've shared a lifetime of friendship. It hurt so much the day I got the news and it still does. It's praying for Andrew each day that slowly eases the pain and the thought that he is not gone but an angel up there looking down on us. I love you Andrew and we love you Joan, Joe and Marissa. GOD bless you and comfort you.

I knew Andrew from High School, I graduated a few years ahead of him so that goes to show how wide his circle was. He was a very caring person with an outragous spirit. He was always able to make everyone laugh and never gave up the chance to make a new friend.

All my thoughts and prayers are with you always!

I only knew andrew trough the star trek.com message boards and occasional convorsations on Instant Messanger, but just the same i am sad to hear the news, as an online community the members of star trek.com just learned about the death yesterday (Feb 9th). He was a crazy and funny guy, certianly seemd like a friendly man.



I may never have met you in person andrew, but ill miss you just the same

Sleep well, friend.

Andrew,

You were an amazing friend, someone I could really talk too. You had to be one of the single most amazing persons that I know. You were so intelligent and caring. I am going to miss you, alot.

Rest in peace Andrew and I'll never forget who you are.

Wow...that brings tears to my eyes. I liked Andrew a whole lot. We used to hang out @ BCC together in between classes. I would take him to the bus stop or to his house whenever I knew he needed a ride. Of course he always tried to decline the offer. I think he liked walking around and taking the bus. I think he was really proud of being sufficient without ever having a car(although he told me he had a truck or something @ one point). I would tell my friends that whenever I pointed him out to them.



Andrew always had a smile on his face and he never had anything bad to say. He was genuinely nice to me.



I really wish I had kept contact with Andrew. I wish I could have exchanged a few more nice words with him. He was one of the only people I ever made friends with at BCC. He was that outgoing. Before we met, I had noticed him, but, he was the one who came up to me and started a conversation. He would just BS with me until we got to know each other a little better. There really aren't that many people around who are anything like the way he was.



I am really upset that I'll never have the opportunity to say goodbye. I'm sure that you and the people who were close with him feel no different.



Words really cannot express how awful and sad I feel.

Joan,

Our deepest condolences to you and your family. Although, we have not seen each other since Hawaii (1970 or 1971?) I can't even imagine what it must be like to lose a child. Hopefully you can find strength with all the wonderful memories you have of Andrew. It sounds like he was one amazing human being! Please do not hesitate to get in touch with us, should the opportunity present itself. We now live in Austin, Texas; Jerry at UT (Austin) Salie at Austin Ind. School District. Our son Luke (31) just got married last Sept. and lives and works in NYC. Our daughter Rika (27) is engaged to be married Sept, 2006 and also lives and works in NYC.



Our thoughts and prayers always,

Salie and Jerry

Andrew,



I wish I didn't have to write this. You were a good friend and unique individual. Any story that had to do with Andrew Huber was almost always interesting. For instance, remember when you thought you were a dinosaur in middle school? I even wrote you into this book we had to write in sixth grade as a dinosaur-destroying mercenary. Yeah, that was crazy. You and your mom were always very good to me. Tell your mom that I am very sorry and she has my condolences. Take it easy man and keep spreading the love wherever you are.

One thing I've learned is to cherish all life. For what it's worth, thanks. To your family and close friends, I send you all my love & blessings, from now until eternity. xoxo

I must say I am shocked ,I have seen Andrew go threw these rough stages in his life through all the years, he always wanted to fit in with everyone,he knew all of us wanted him to make better for his life, I remember the first day i met him years back ,tavern nights , fun times, hanging out, I remember he always supported my band Sick of society , and for that I will never forget , many of us fall , but for some its their legacy they leave behind that matters, and yours will not be forgotten ,for all the times good or bad ,weird, crazy,or whatever it may of been, I say rest in peace my brother!

cheers!

Some people are stars and some people are planets. Andrew was an enormous space arc carrying a race of dinosaur-looking aliens to enslave earth. Actually the space arc was how the human race escaped earth after the political uprisings and endless world wars. They went to a far off galaxy and started a new civilization where the lessons learned from hundreds of years warring with themselves could be put to use. Thousands of years passed and the humans of earth were forgotten by the new terran space civilization. The planet earth became just a myth, like Olympus or the garden of Eden. The terrans forgot their heritage and became increasingly corrupt; they began enslaving weaker races, destroying those that opposed them, dominating mineral-rich planets. Years passed and the once wise human race became a fascist, self-promoting, egotistical war machine.

I miss all the fun we had exploring our imaginations as we grew up together. He was like a brother to me, and I'll never forget him. I'd like to think he's somewhere watching me, but realistically.. he's probably drinking a 40 of Mickey's with Joey Ramone.



My love always.

We were truely blessed with the time we had with Andrew. I am truely sad to see him go. My sympathy goes out to Andrews family. I hope you are in a better place now, and finally found peace...Oi Oi steggy

I didn't know Andrew, but I am a good friend of his sister, Marissa. Marissa always spoke fondly of her brother and it breaks my heart that she had to lose him. Like most people, I'm finding it hard to express what I truly feel. What do you say to a family that has just lost their son? I hope that Andrew is at peace and I hope that the Huber family is doing well. My thoughts will be with you all.

Andrew, these are my wishes for you then, now, and in the next life:



May you be happy.

May you be safe and protected from all danger and harm.

May you be healthy in body and in mind.

May you live a life of ease and good will.

May you be free.



I will miss you always. May your heart be at peace and find that which you could not in this lifetime.

Much love, Amory

Andrew - you were a great classmate and friend, not to mention one of the best goalies Nova hockey has ever seen. Anyone whose had the pleasure of seeing Andrew in action knows he could turn into a wall whenever he wanted and fire a team up with his antics. You will be missed. My condolences.

Andrew,



You will always be in our hearts, prayers, and mind. Whether the image is you in your 'Cat In The Hat, Nova Middle School Years; Nova 2000 Senior's Day and so on.



You and your family provided a special dimension to this household as did all the terrific Nova Classmembers of 2000. The whole class was one in a million.



(That 'Cat In The Hat Picure playing Foosball will stay on the wall with all the other kids as long as we are here to remind us how fortunate we were for the time to have all of you).



God bless you, Andrew; and, your Mom, Dad, and Sister.

My cousin Andrew certainly marched to the beat of his own drum. My best memories of him are long distance phone conversations where he'd tease me for being a Republican, and visiting Disney World's Fort Wilderness - we all had fun in those cheap, ghetto trailers that they called cabins. Andrew, I love you and will miss my "favorite [boy] cousin"

Suzanne Pressman

December 21, 2005

Andrew was one of the most complex individuals I have ever met. His unique ambiance could light up the dimmest of rooms. I can remember as far back to Kindergarten when Andrew would passionately voice his dream of becoming an astronaut, and he was the best science fair competitor Peters Elementary had ever seen! I feel lucky no have known him. Rest in peace, Andrew Huber, our astronaut from above. My deepest condolences.

Andrew-



I lack the proper words to describe the feeling of loss I am left with. I can't believe that you are gone.



My Andrew.



My stegosaurus.



I am glad we spent some of your last nights together. We always said that we didn't fit in anywhere but with each other. We always said we didn't belong to this world and that we should have been space pirates. We talked for hours about everything and about nothing all at once. You always protected me, no matter what.



We shared so much together. I will eternally cherish the kind words you shared with me. I hope you know that I do and will ALWAYS love you.



You would never let me forget that you thought I was beautiful and worth something. You always told me that I could do anything I wanted to.



I miss you so much. I hope you know that you are with me, now and forever.



I love you Andrew. I know someday we will meet again.
