Ursula Andrews Obituary
Ursula M. Andrews
March 5, 1947 - Dec. 4, 2020
CROWN POINT, IN - Ursula M. Andrews, age 73 of Crown Point, went home to our Lord on December 4, 2020 after a courageous battle with cancer.
Born on March 5, 1947 to Wasile and Irmgard Berea in Germany. She immigrated to the United States as a young girl, and later received her citizenship certificate. She worked at St. Catherine's Hospital when she met her husband, John and they married on January 21, 1967.
She raised two children while attending school for her teaching certificate. She taught Art at Lowell High School before going back to college to further her education. She worked her way to Principal of Lowell High School until she retired.
Ursula was fun-loving with a vivacious personality and lust for life. She was an avid traveler, and she loved adventure and visited countries around the globe. She was an accomplished artist and displayed and sold many of her pieces at art shows. A social butterfly, she loved entertaining with family and friends usually over a glass of wine. An active member in her book club, she enjoyed good conversation. Her love for coffee was endless as well as her generosity.
She was a devoted wife, loving mother and sister and caring friend to many. She will forever be in our hearts and she will be greatly missed.
Preceded in death by her mother, father, brothers, Bernard and Wolfgang Berea.
Ursula is survived by her husband, John; daughter, Sandy (Mike) Koscho; son, Brian (Rose) Andrews; grandchildren: Jacob, Matthew, and Henry; sister, Gundi (Dieter) Krause and Barbara Baert; and countless nieces and nephews

My friend, my former neighbors from Fir Street in Indiana Harbor, and my former classmate at East Chicago Washington High School (where we would walk over 10 blocks in those brutal winter mornings to get to school). I would often bump into Wolfgang and ask about his entire family, until he passed away. It has been over 40 years since I last saw Ursula. The Berea's were wonderful neighbors...and I shall never forget them. I am so sorry to hear of her passing. I pray that your memories will give you comfort and faith provides you with strength during the days ahead. May the love you all share sustain you through this time of sorrow. May God shine His blessing on her husband and his family. Please accept my deepest sympathy. May her memory be eternal.
