I was just reading the obits and came across this. I've always wondered what happened to Andy - we grew up together - the Cherolis family on Avalon and the Shuey Family on Athens. Andy was a year older than me. He hung with Lee Stanfel. Then Anna and Anthony (both since deceased I have heard), George was the oldest and then Mary came last. I remember when Andy went to the car races as a kid and one of the cars hit the side or another car and he was almost in a full body cast for a long time. Anyway we played with the Cherolis family out in the streets and had such fun. I am saddened to learn now of Andy's passing. His family (parents and siblings) were wonderful. I always remember his mom, Bess, scrubbing out the basement floor and waxing it. I hope Andy is at peace now and my condolences to his wife, children and grandchildren. Sincerely Claudine SHUEY Minasian.

I remember Andy laughing with all of us when Uncle Tony would do his stand up comedy during the holiday dinners. I also remember how kind and thoughtful he was. I am sad, but I believe he will be at peace with those who love him in heaven. Sue (Themoleas) Pierce
