Andrew...... our truly precious Son. Your life was short but soooo sweet. You were the 'best' child that parents could ever wish for and we treasured and adored you every moment that you lived. What a great example of a tender and condiderate young Man you were and you taught so much to those you encountered daily, by your gentle and respectful manerisms and awsome 'aura'. Your are our delight and joy and in our hearts forever and ever. Mum and Dad. Rest now.............. listen to your Mum one more time and really rest. Love Ya :)

As I've already said, we are so sorry for you and your daughter and your entire family. What a sad day. I never got to meet you or Andrew but I'll never forget when you saw the picture I put up of Dean with Don Cherry and the story I told you and Andrew saying he was happy to hear Don wore Crocs too! I can't even imagine what you guys are going through and our thoughts and prayers are with you all. Lots of love from your cousin Dean, and me and the girls, Ursula and Gracie. Love, Barbara

We hung out a lot as kids next door to each other, riding dirt bikes, playing nintendo, or just goofing around. Andrew was probly the most polite kid I have ever met, it truly is a shame to lose the great ones around us but he is now around others that need him more than we did.

Allthough we happened to grow apart geographically I always thought about Andrew and Richard and how they are doing. I will miss you Andrew you truly were a great guy to know. May you rest in peace and may your fammilly be able to cope with this sad sad loss. I wish you all the best in your futures.
