Andrew Cardamone Obituary

Obituary published on Legacy.com by Lewis Funeral Chapel - Fort Smith on Jan. 14, 2023.
Andrew Joseph Cardamone aka. Drew, aka. Drewbie.
Aka Drewbie Doobie Doo earned his wings and left the planet on Thursday, January 12th 2023.
Born Tuesday, June 29th 1982 to Michele Cardamone in Salem Oregon, Drewbie to all who knew him was a jack of many trades, some good, some we don't mention.
When asked what Drew did for a living his mother said he was a restaurant manager, his sister said he was an entrepreneur, his brother said he was a trouble maker, his mother then said well these last few years he's been disabled, his niece chimed in with "in the brain!" The truth is Drew was just Drew and He was never tied to one idea or definition. If you really knew Drew and you were his friend, then you knew he would do anything for you. If you knew Drew and you weren't his friend, well then we won't talk about that. He had an eccentric sense of humor that if you understood, was funny, and if you didn't, you were left either confused or offended. Drew may have left his home and car to at least seven people as a final hurrah, however Drew did not own a car or home. As a child he learned that laughter and weirdness turned all eyes on him and he used that skillfully throughout his life. His favorite place to be was the limelight, but he was also quick to tell you that he never wished anyone to walk a mile in his shoes. Drew played the role of Uncle and Mentor to several friends and other extended family and was loved by many that were not blood related. Drew is survived by his mother Michele Cardamone, two brothers, Patrick "Nathan" Cardamone, Rodger Hayward, one sister and her husband Angela and Jim Dowdy, six nieces and nephews, six great nieces and nephews, and a shitload of friends and extended family members.
