Andrea -- my beloved sister, my friend, protector and confidant. She was always there for me, and I will really miss talking and joking around with her. I was her youngest sister,and have many many happy memories of her and her beautiful family. I will always treasure the memories of my visit with her last year in Tennessee. She will always be in my thoughts and prayers. I will be praying to her daily along with my other little saints, my daughter, Debby and niece, Karen.

Losing a sibling is a very painful experience. Andrea and I were the closest sisters in age and she was the only person who went back to the beginning with me. I will miss her very much. Now I have a sister in heaven to pray to along with my daughter, Karen. I'll never forget you, Andrea. Your sister, Petricia

Our deepest condolences to all of you on the death of your Mom and Grandmother. God called her because he needed some help, and He knew that she would complete the task with a smile on her face. We all know that she was there for all of the children at OLG, always looking out for her family and all of the kids. She will be greatly missed by all. God bless all of your family and remember she is at peace and with her loved ones who left this earth before her.
