Andy was one of my best friends for 25 years and when we met as 9 and 10 year old kids, we became instant friends and our bond was never broken. We grew up together, had some crazy fun times, and even as adults, he still knew how to make me laugh like we were kids and was always there for me in the good and bad times. He left us much too soon and my thoughts are with Mary, Ike, Dave and Michelle and the rest of his family during this very difficult time. We will meet again Andy, just wish you weren't taken so soon, and your spirit will live on.

Drew was one of my very best friends in junior high and high school. Though we lost touch, I will always remember his infectious smile and laugh. I will never forget what a great friend he was to me and to so many others.

Still seems so unreal you're no longer with us. I'll always remember our back cracking competitions in mrs. Arpin's senior english class. I send prayers to your family so they can find peace at this time. Watch over us brother and don't forget to take the time out and do the things you want to do.

Andy, where should I start? You were one of the most cheerful, positive, outgoing,upbeat people I have ever met. I will cherish the friendship we had. The cross country/track days. Watching the movie Friday day after day. We could recite half the movie! I'll miss the random text messages with different movie lines, but most of all I'll miss the big smile and laugh you had. I am proud to have called you my friend and I hope your resting comfortably. Katie and I are so thankful you introduced us all those years ago. Love you buddy.
