Mom,
Hard to say it's almost a month already. Miss you a lot every day. I'll never forget anything you have taught me over the years, how excited you were when I announced that I was ready to move out on my own, and last but not least, the smile you always had no matter what. You always were the one to light up everyone's day. Glad you are no longer suffering. Words cannot express how much I love you and miss you. You are the best mom I could ever ask for and know you are watching over us every day. Hope to keep making you proud.

I was so very saddened to hear Andrea had passed. It makes my heart hurt to think I won’t see her at Stahleys anymore. We always laughed together and she made my nite alittle brighter. My sincere condolences go out to the family. She will be missed.

I spoke at your funeral today mom. Not a day goes by without me thinking about you. We had some laughs as well as shared some tears today with many. You are missed by many and loved by many. Today was one of the hardest days of my life, but you are no longer suffering. I miss you, mom. I can’t express that and how much I love you enough. You are the best mom and I know you watching us and we’re gonna make you proud.

Deepest Sympathy to Andrea's family. She always was a friendly person. Our conversations were about her son's, in-laws, Mike and cruises they took. I would eat something and ask her if she wanted some and she would always ask "What is in it". She always made me laugh..She fought a tough battle and told me earlier this year it was too hard on her.. She tried with all her heart!! Will miss her smile!

Andrea is a fighter. Her cancer did not change that spirit. She was well liked at work where I knew her. I will remember her with her long pretty hair and strong smile.

May you keep those memories alive and cherish every single one of them. I know she is smiling down on you and is SO VERY PROUD...I know I would be.

I am so sorry for your loss of Andrea. I worked with her at AAA also at Casilio Concrete.She always had her smile and a beautiful person to work with.

Well Sweet Pea, you are at rest now my friend. I will cherished our memories.

Mom,
We miss you so much. I am so blessed with all of the support from everyone. I hope you see how much you are loved. You were loved and cared for by many. You had a character like no other, you were so kind, wise, caring, and loving. You never missed a sporting event or any big moments in my life and my brothers. I always loved bringing my friends around you because they loved you because you treated them like they were your own. You have a heart of gold, one of the most contagious laughs, beautiful smile and eyes that would light up a room. I know you considered yourself the luckiest mom ever because of Patrick and I, but in reality we were so lucky and blessed to have a mom like you. I love you mom, more than anything.
I’ll always be your piggy toes.
