Your smile, jokes,and long talks, I will miss. Enjoy the BREATHLESS VIEW from your NEW HOME. My friend, my BROTHER, I will miss you very MUCH. I will never forget the times we had growing up into adult hood. Althought my job took me away from DC, you were always and you will continue to be in my thoughts.

Andre was a very special person to all of us. Although we have only known him and Lewis a short time, we have felt a connection to him. We will greatly miss him and we look forward to the day when we are all reunited in heaven. Lewis, we love you so much. If you ever need us, we are a phone call away.

Its not often in life that one comes across a friend,a motivator and rare jewel like Dre.... Dre has touch many lives. Mine included..I will never forget his charm, his wit, his intellect,his wisdom and most of all, his heart-deep as the ocean...boundless. Always going beyond the mile to be there in any way he could to help another. I laugh to myself when I think about how Dre sometimes would get on my nerves(smile) because he always had a solution to everything-cutting straight to the point! THE PROBLEM SOLVER.."Okay, Ive told you what you needed to do, so now what's the problem"...... and 9.7 times out 10, he'd be right!..We sometimes dont want solutions to our problems..rather choosing to soak in them for a while...Dre never let you do that..I get sad now when I think about who i'll have to talk to and help me figure my problems/situations out that may arise in the future..But the beautiful thing about life and love is that both are eternal..Dre will live on through the lives he touched in his life's journey..So we will have many conversations.And when I miss you Dre, I'll close my eyes tight so that I can see your smile-bright as the sunshine..letting me know that its all good...in the sunshine...I love you man! I'll see you again!!!>>Friend for life, Reuben

Our thoughts and prayers go out to Andre's family and friends. Lewis you are very dear to us. Please know that we are here for you for whatever you may need. Although we may not know why God takes those who are precious away from us, He has a plan and know that we will reunite with Andre someday.
