Andrew, I'll miss you forever. I still remember meeting you my first week of freshman year at the callaway house. You left a last impression, and I knew you were going to be my friend forever. You were one of the few people I always kept up with since college. And we had planned to visit each other this year. You had the best sense of humor and caring personality. You always had my back and I knew I could alway call you in a time of need. Thank you for that. I'll cherish all the memories we had. My favorite being the time I helped you move. I can't believe your gone but I know your with God now and at peace. I'll love you always and forever. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. See you soon Andrew

Andrew, my co-worker, my friend, I am and will miss you so much. We've worked together for over a year at Markit but just this pass February we became friends instead of just colleagues. I'll never forget when one day you came to the table I sit at during lunch, the loud table as Markit knows it, and you asked if you could sit bc all we do is laugh. We welcomed you in and you brought so much more laughter to us, and all of us considered you as a brother from another mother. I'll remember the crazy topics that you would bring up for our round table discussions and we would just be in tears trying to figure out how you came up with it. Rest with the angels my friend, I hope you are comforted in God's arms.

The righteous perish, and no one takes it to heart; the devout are taken away, and no one understands that the righteous are taken away to be spared from evil. Those who walk uprightly enter into peace; they find rest as they lie in death.
Isaiah 57:1-2 NIV
RIP you beautiful angel. I can't believe you're gone. I'm holding onto the promise that you are now at peace. You will be missed every single day. I hope you know how loved you are. ❤
