At about 5:45 a.m. on Wednesday, May 28, 2025, Andy blasted off with Enoch in his spaceship and is now traveling around the universe building pyramids, moving giant rocks, and installing electricity.
Now Andy has his lung back and he can breathe, his COPD is gone, the vertebrae in his neck are no longer fused together and he can turn his head, his feet have feeling, and he no longer needs to charge up the battery in his back and he can run in the sand on the beach. His hip replacement has been taken out. Andy no longer needs his hearing aids, as they were constantly annoying because they never worked correctly. His lens implant is removed, and he sees clearly. Andy's teeth are all repaired, and he no longer needs to wear his "smile". His port has been removed, and he doesn't need any medication. The stents in his heart are gone. His watchman and Mitra Clip have been taken out. Andy no longer needs to use three inhalers and take five pills each day. G-d has given him a new pain-free body that is glorious and immortal. When Andy shaved and got ready to go out somewhere, he would ask if he was "pertiful". He always was, and now more than ever, he is a beautiful, strong, and powerful man.
Andy has had many careers in his life. As a little boy, he caught and cleaned fish for his mother. As he grew up, he built biscuit restaurants and managed hotels. Andy was a sheet metal engineer, a heating and air conditioning man. He put huge air conditioners that needed to be flown in on top of hospitals. He could start a building and get a COA in two weeks. He passed all the tests for local building codes. Andy worked for a blind attorney in Oklahoma and deposed many and helped many more. Andy had a career as an auditor. But his favorite job was being your wine maker. That was his real passion. He loved talking about wine and loved the Bible stories. One of his favorite possessions is the Ethiopian Bible, which contains four books of Enoch.
Rabbi says Andy's soul has gone back to be with G-d because Andy was a good man. Rabbi is proud of Andy's strength and courage. He says very few have the courage to do what Andy faced unafraid. Andy chose his destiny and had the guts to carry through.
Andy is survived by his wife, Goldie Roberts; his son, Adrian Wolthuis; and his daughter-in-law, Sirikanlays; two grandsons, Lucas and Andrew; and one granddaughter, Keira. There are many Roberts relatives, too numerous to mention. Andy has a special relationship with his goddaughter Jessica.
There will be a celebration of life for Andy on July 27, 2025, from 11:00 a.m. until 7:00 p.m., at Goldie's Vineyard, 8518 S. Kay's Chapel Road, Fredericksburg, IN 47120. He would have been 74 that day. We will plant trees with his ashes under them. The Blues Brothers will play. And we will all remember one of the most precious men to ever walk the face of this earth, and we will thank G-d that he is no longer in pain and watch for him in the sky.

To plant trees in memory, please visit the Sympathy Store.

My heart aches, it was such a gentle man.
Didn´t know him well, nor did I know him long.
But long enough to know he was true to those he loved and those he called friends. I shall miss him passing wine out on Friday nights.
Condolences to all who knew him so much better than I. RIP friend

I have known Andy for 68 years. That's a long time in which we kept in touch. I was so sad he left me behind. Inside joke because I use to have to always be told to keep up. I know he is healed and still study life. I'll be there Andy when God calls me home. I'm still trying to catch up. I love you kiddo and miss you. Friends forever.
