Andrea Towle Obituary

Andrea Towle
09/03/1957 - 09/12/2023
Andrea "Deedle" Dean Towle, 66, passed away peacefully on Tuesday, September 12th , 2023, after a short battle with liver cancer. Her loving husband of 37 years, Robert Towle, was by her side when she passed.
Andrea was born September 3rd, 1957, to Joan and Charles Dean in Cincinnati Ohio. In the late 1950s, her family moved to Ridgefield, CT, where she grew up. Andrea was the third of four children. She later met her future husband, Robert "Bob" Towle, and moved to Rochester, NH, where she and Bob raised their two sons, Christopher and Michael Towle. Andrea adored her family and cherished the time spent with them. There were many family gatherings over the years with plenty of laughs and good times. As a mother, Andrea cared deeply for her children and wanted the very best for them. She was always there to cheer them on and provide the love and drive they needed. Andrea was an avid NY Giants fan with a very competitive nature. She really enjoyed being at home with the ones she loved, and being able to just spend time with her children and granddaughters.
She is survived by her husband Robert Towle, her son Christopher Towle, his wife Felecia Towle and their three daughters Savannah Towle, Willow Towle and Isla Towle and her son Michael Towle. As well as her sisters Diana Dean, Melissa Reilly, and her brother Charles "Chip" Dean. She was predeceased by her parents, Charles Dean and Joan Dean.
Andrea's outlook on life and compassion for others left a lasting impact on her family, friends and the people she associated with.
She will truly be missed.
The family will be holding a small private service and would like to ask that, in lieu of flowers, please donate to the American Cancer Society.

Deedle was the nicest and prettiest girl in my grammar school classes at Veterans Park Elementary. We were both born in Ohio and moved to Ridgefield about the same time so we shared a childhood bond. I moved back to the Midwest in the sixth grade so we lost touch. I am heartbroken to learn she has passed but happy to know she had a loving family.

One memory I have is of Deedle, in the kitchen with her mother trying to bite her socked foot. It was just really cute to see. That's always stuck with me and never fails to bring a smile to my face. God Bless the family.
