Andrew QH. VanWieren, age 17, of Holland, passed away unexpectedly on Monday, February 19, 2024.
He was preceded in death by his Grandma Sandra VanWieren.
Andrew was a Junior at Hamilton High School.
Andrew is survived by his parents, Tim and Cindy VanWieren and Cynthia Tagg; sister, Samantha VanWieren; Tim (Kate) Meyer, Ben (Jennalee) Meyer, Sarah (Tyler) Lipscomb and sisters, Brooke Sakowsi and Kylee Sakowski, Grandparents, Carl VanWieren, Carol and Carl Van Dyke. 8 nieces and nephews, Aunt Cathy (Joel) Rodriguez and numerous other aunts, uncles and cousins.
Andrew was an avid outdoorsman who passionately enjoyed fishing the most. Andrew loved animals, especially his cat, "fat cat". Saying that Andrew had a big heart was an understatement. He had so much love and care for those around him. He was sometimes shy and quiet but what he did have to say was often very witty. Andrew knew how to be a friend and he was a friend to many. He will be missed more than words can say.
