Gale Severns says
We wish Andy could have stayed with us longer but he will…only in a different form ….like our memories, special moments shared, his smile, his laugh, a well played joke, a well planned trip, and his generous spirit. We are thankful he was a part of our life and will always stir up some good emotion/memory in our heart. We know his journey at the end was rough to say the least on him and his loved ones but we know God has received Andy in His loving arms with a peace and love that surpasses all our understanding.
Our heartfelt sympathies to all of his family members. Rest in heavenly peace, Andy.
