Always loved Mr Andrews.... Always happy and smiling. I had the pleasure of waiting on him when I was Head Teller at Sun Trust in Auburndale years ago and currently at Dr . Crowder's office. When I last saw him a couple of months ago he hugged my neck and said well, if I don't make my next appointment I'll see you in Heaven .... I'll see you there someday Mr Andrews!!! Your family is in my thoughts and prayers.
