"We might not be the ones to change the world. We might not belong to the few that "put a ding in the universe." We might not be something the whole world would celebrate. But...In the little corners that we live; in the lives that we've played a part in, we should be nothing but unforgettable." ~ Nesta Erskine
William Joseph Andruscavage, "Andy" age 79, of Dayton, passed away Monday, September 11, 2023 at Sentara RMH Medical Center. Andy was born in Bloombsburg, PA and is survived by sisters, Andi Carole of Hyannis, MA and Geraldine Denison of Camp Hill, PA.
He was preceded in death by his life partner William O. Walsh and companion Bruce L. Beeman.
Andy was a member and professional judge for the American Cat Fanciers Association and the American Association of Cat Enthusiasts. His prized Blue Boy won his heart and will always be by his side.
He retired from Kawneer Company, Inc and was the owner/operator of his true passion - ADR Enterprises. He would spend countless hours designing and producing award ribbons and buttons for various organizations across the globe. Andy was a true entrepreneur.
Andy enjoyed a great card game with friends and enjoyed a toast of Rum & Coke. He enjoyed art, attending rodeos and sporting his western shirts, life-sized belt buckles and cowboy boots. Andy lived a life of giving to others. He was passionate about helping those who could not help him in return. His legacy will live with all that was touched by his life and generosity.
No service is scheduled. Contributions in Andy's memory can be made to your local SPCA.
