Andy my godson and nephew will be greatly missed. The world is a better place for having had him in it. All the life's he touched will not be forgotten for his positive impact on them. His love of animals, people and nature were sincere. So glad we got to see him recently on his visit to Collegeville , Pa. I believe we are all inscribed in The Book of Life, and Andy was called. May your family find peace in knowing we all loved you and your beautiful soul and kind spirit which is a gift to us all.

❤Aunt Judith Locke & Cousin Rachel
