Andrew was such a great friend. He could light up a room with his smile. He was very kind and fun to be around. I really Loved my friend so much and he will be missed. I'm so sorry that God took him from us so soon. He must have needed another angel. He will never be forgotten . He was loved by so many friends and I'm grateful to be one of them. Rest in peace buddy, untill we meet again. I love you!!
