My thoughts and prayers go out to the entire Andrus Family. I spent many a night in their home as a child growing up with Keith and sometimes spending the night. I'll never forget how well I was treated in the Andrus Home and the incredible hot chocolate Mrs. Andrus made for us before we went skiing.

Growing up on Bryan Avenue by the Andrus family has left wonderful memories for me. "Those were the days" that I still remember as the "good old days" and love reliving them. May the Lord bless you at this time.

Dear Andrus cousins, I remember times on Bryant street during Christmas and other parties. I know your Mom will be missed but she is so happy to be with family on the other side. My Prayers and thoughts are with you at this time.

Sweet Alice! My heart goes out to all my Andrus cousins, I'm thinking of you in your great loss. What a wonderful sister/soulmate she was to my mom, Ruth. I have a great photo of these two -- arm in arm in front of their home. Two beautiful young women with their Sunday coats and funky 40's galoshes in the snow. Big Hugs to all of you at the loss of your DEAR MOM! Sorry I can't be there with you tomorrow.

As I opened my computer this morning, I found the obituary about the passing of my Aunt Alice. My heart is sad that it is time for her to leave us. My memories are full of good times at the Andrus home. Aunt Alice always had a sweet presence about her, that matched her smile. My love to all of you. I wish I could be there to give you a hug, and talk about the good times. Know you are in my thoughts and prayers as you gather together.

Dear Laurene, Gary, Janice, Judy Wayne, Keith and Allen,
I was sorry to see of the passing of your Mother although I know of the happiness that is for Kathie and your father. I wish I could attend the services on Tuesday but Jerry and I are serving a mission in South Africa. Please know that my love and thoughts are with you. I still miss Kathie and I am greatful for the influence of your angel mother in my life. I pray that the Lord's comfort and peace will be with you.
