My sympathies to the Kleibrink family. Drew was so respected and loved by so many of us from his high school years. It speaks volumes that 28 yrs later, he was still a part of our lives.

Drew and I shared a lot of classes in high school...we were both kinda nerdy. Such a sweetheart always, and I'll miss his gentle, caring soul.

The first time I met you at Meyers Elementary, I knew you were going to be a good friend to me. You re-introduced me to many old school friends and to new ones. I'll see you on the other side dear friend.
