Andy Jacob Monk

Andy Jacob Monk, a precious gift from God, was born on November 16, 2025, in Ft. Meade, Florida, and was gently called home to be with the Lord on January 22, 2026, in Orlando, Florida.

Though his time on earth was brief, Andy’s life was filled with deep love and purpose. From the moment he arrived, he captured hearts and brought immeasurable joy to his family. He was a beautiful reminder of God’s grace, leaving footprints of love that will remain forever.

Andy is lovingly survived by his parents, Michael and Cheyenne Monk; his siblings, Athena, Archer, Aella, and Albie Monk, who will always hold him close in their hearts. He is also survived by his grandparents, Brent and Betsy Monk, and John and Val Holdren; his uncle and aunt Andrew and Stephanie Monk; uncle Jeremy Holdren; Great Grandma Hilda Hunt; PawPaw Daren Dean; and many cherished cousins who will forever know him as their sweet angel.

Jesus reminds us of the preciousness of children in Matthew 19:14:

"Let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of heaven belongs to such as these"

Andy’s life, though short, was complete in love and wrapped in God’s perfect promise. His family finds comfort knowing they will one day be reunited.

Andy is safe in the arms of Jesus!
