To the entire Stasko family,

My deepest sympathies in the loss of your son and brother. Although I did not know Andy personally, I was privileged to know 3 of his sisters and his brother Sean while attending Emmaus High School. My thoughts and prayers are also with his wife and children.

Andrew Stasko JR..well known to his family as Andy JR was my cousin. I remember as a kid when my mom, dad, grandma and I would take our trips to Pennsylvania to visit my Aunt Pat, Uncle Andy and my cousins. I couldn't wait to get there every time because i loved visiting them. Though i was alot younger than my cousins they always had the time to play a game with me. I remember Andy Jr being very smart and always did good in everything he did. I was the Flower Girl in his and Pam's wedding, i remember him being soo happy that day, dancing his butt off on the dance floor with his sisters haha and so in love with his new wife. As i got older i got to see what a great dad he was to his daughter Kristen and son Andrew. Andy Jr was such a kind, caring and loving person he will never be forgotten because he will be in our hearts forever.

Andy was my brother,my friend and without a doubt the kindest person I've ever known. Whenever I think of him as a young boy the first thing that comes to mind is how he was always saving one of God's creatures. Whether it be a duck,rabbit,quail,black bird or dog if it needed help my brother would stay up all night with them tending their injuries. He saw the possibilities of making something beautiful out of what appeared to most others as nothing. When he dreamed he dreamed BIG! When he laughed he laughed loud, and when he started dancing it was best if you just got out of the way! Andy, to say that you'll be missed by us all doesn't even begin to express how we feel! To my sisters, Kim,Tammy, and Erin and my brother Sean, we were so blessed to have him in our lives, however short 41 years may seem to us now, whenever we are together he will always be there because that is when he was truly his happiest! Laugh,shout,cry, and pray but most of all remember! Love Always, Karin

To: Pam, Kristen Mary, & Andrew III,



My heartfelt sympathy goes out to you. I am praying for all of you.



At baby Andrew's Christening, I was going to take a picture of Pam holding baby Andrew, and my mother (Pam's Aunt). Andy hurried over with Kristen Mary and said lets get everybody in the picture and so I ended up with a beautiful photo of Pam holding Baby Andrew, Andy, Kristen Mary, and my mother.



To all of Andy's sisters and to Andy's brother, and especially, to Andy's Mother and Father, I am praying for all of you.

Andy was such a very special person. I'll never forget how thoughtful and compassionate he was when he visited my father in the hospital. That meant so very much to my mother and me. Andy also joined us for lunch at Perkins one day when we were taking a break from the hospital. It was such a kind gesture; one neither of us will ever forget.



Please know that our thoughts and prayers are with you all.
