Your father was a bright lightI don’t ever remember seeing him without out that smile on his face! Even for years after I was no longer a student at Virginia Heights, he still spoke at the store or anywhere I saw him. I pray for peace for your family. He will be missed!

When you left a part of me went with you. My heart is so broken. I will miss our inspirational good mornings and good-nights. There will never be another "King Andre". I will cherish the fun memories because there was never a bad moment with you. To Felix, Trina, granddaughters, brother and sister-in-law, I will continue to lift you all up in prayer .

It was a shock to us all hearing of Uncle's passing. We are slowly accepting that he's gone. We will miss his visits. Continue to rest in peace.
Felix, Uncle Billy, may God comfort and strengthen you and the rest of the family.

I was a close church Friend of Andre's. He served with me as a greeter for the Sunday Morning services for several years. He always had a cheery welcome for all who came to the services and made everyone he greeted feel very welcomed. I always appreciated how his warm heart felt greetings to all who came which added to our Sunday morning services. I will always carry memories of his great and accepting spirit for all who came.
