Time and distance can be great obstacles. I wish that I had more time to spend with you. I wish that we did not live so far apart. I remember fishing, and your garden. I remember our last farewell this past June. My thoughts go out to my Aunt Thelma and all my cousins. May everyone be spared any further sorrow.

... so many memories come to mind, most of all the camping trips that our families shared as well as many celebrations spent together. our families were very close, my parents considered the Borschneck family as their nearest and dearest friends. andy was always full of fun and laughter. he loved to tease all of us kids and when we grew up and had kids of our own, he treated them the same way.... and of course, they loved it! as my own parents got elderly and ill, both Thelma and Andy were so supportive. the care and concern of their close friendship meant the world to me and i know my parents felt the love of that friendship. when i first heard this sad news of Andys passing, the first thing that came to my mind was that Andy was with my mom and dad and other close friends playng a game of whist, and laughing themselves silly.. safe and sound and in a place where there is no pain or suffering, only peace. i now send Thelma a big hug as well as my love for her in hopes that it will give even a small amount of peace. my heart goes out to Kieth and Terry as well as the many grandchildren who will miss him. they too will carry fond memories of his warmth and jovial personality. thoughts and prayers from luke and linda raisbeck
