Andrew Anguiano Obituary

ANDREW "ANDY" ANGUIANO HAMMOND, IN Andrew "Andy" Anguiano, 50 of Hammond, surrendered to his battle with cancer on December 26, 2012. He leaves behind his son, Sgt. Charles, USMC (Stephany) Anguiano; and his yet to arrive grandson. He is also survived by his parents: Charles and Frances Anguiano; sisters: Linda Anguiano, Carolyn Schneider, Pam (Brad) Wicker and Angie (Mark) Szymaszek; brothers: Chuck Anguiano and Mike (Denise) Anguiano; three nieces; and three great nieces. He also leaves behind his devoted former wife, Lorene Johnston; his former father-in-law, "Red" Johnston; numerous friends and family members; and his loving pet, Savannah. Visitation will be held 4:00- 7:00 p.m. on Wednesday, January 2, 2013, followed by a service at 7:30 p.m. at the Lincoln Ridge Funeral Home, 7607 W. Lincoln Highway (Rt. 30 East of Cline Avenue), Schererville, IN. (219) 322-6616. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to Andy's family.

Andy was a "larger-than-life" person with a zany sense of humor, who loved entertaining family and friends.

R.I.P. Andy, my prayers and thoughts are with your family. So sorry for your loss Charles. Your dad was a good man and a good friend to my son. He taught my son a lot and was always there if he needed someone to talk too. I'm thinking of you!

This is a life experience you can never get used to. Losing someone you love is the most excruciating pain we can go through. You walk through life with an open palm, helping those in need and offering your help where needed. You are an amazing person and I know god's light will shine on you soon so you can enjoy the sunlight once again. Andy will be forever missed.

My deepest sympathy,

Andy, I will always remember the fun times we all had back in the day. I'll never forget the times you and my Dad would be in the back yard telling jokes. You will truly be missed. Rest well my friend. Our thoughts and prayers are with your family..

Andy....I know that your deepening faith has taken you to a place of heavenly peace and wholeness. Although we became friends during the last 3 years of your life they were years of great conversation, compassionate service and caring support during times of need. I am so, so sorry that you are no longer with us but am consoled in the knowledge that you are in heaven watching over your loved ones. Your giving, caring, joyful spirit will be remembered and sorely missed. Rest in eternal glorious peace.

Love you & miss you! I'm greiving with such a broken heart. You were one of my older brothers who seemed to always be so proud of me. But you did more with your life, touched more hearts & loved by more than I will ever know. I'm beaming with pride & know I was/am blessed to have you as my older, goofy, story-telling, loving brother. I'll ALWAYS remember the day I took you to that one White Sox game & we had front row seats. What a super exciting day for the two of us, especially when I got the last ball that Konerko threw out when no one knew if he was gonna stay with the White Sox. And I'll always remember when I took you to see 21 Jump Street at the movies and we laughed thru nearly the whole movie. Thanks for spending the time that we could get together, alone. Love your baby sister, "Gee"
