Andrew Penesis Obituary

Sorry for the loss of your father .

I attended Emmet School with Andy & remembered him as a fun loving classmate. His father owned a grocery store down & across the street where we lived on Madison st. We lived in a 2 flat bldg & often played marbles in the empty car lot next to our house. I remembered Andy had a particular talent for hitting the marbles with great force & accuracy. I was totally impressed! I don't think he participated in many of our "alley games" but when he was around he was a happy kid. He sent me a valentine one year with a few deer on it. I thought of it as kind of special. It was probably sent without thought but it made my day & I remember it all these years.
I'm sorry to hear of his passing and had been thinking of him lately wondering what he was doing. I know you will miss your loved one. My condolences to all who knew & loved him.

sorry for your loss.

I am very sad with Andy's passed away. I send my deepest condolences to Andy's family. Andy was my second cousin. His mother and my father were first cousins, from Agios Petros village in Peloponissos - Greece

Andy I'll miss your humor and insight. I'll always remember the conversations we had and your wonderful sense of humor. Now God can benefit from them.

Ted is a friend and I know he loved his dad deeply. I hope your entire family finds solace in a life well lived.

Uncle Andy was a one of a kind. I have many fond memories of him picking me up at Grandma's house to take a drive in his bread truck. He loved life and made it a lot of fun for us.

Sorry for your loss.Andy was a great help in coaching with me at Harwood Heights Little League.From knowing him, a number one husband and father.May God comfort you at this time.

I am sorry for your loss. I am glad to have known Andy. The St Demetrius Outing will not be the same without him.

Andy, I will always remember the spanking that you gave me when I was 5 years old. You thought I was spoiled and you were right!

I will miss your directness, candor, and spirit!

your family is in my prayers

Andy, you were always a class act-- Kind, gracious and caring. Your dad and my dad came from the same village in Greece and ran their grocery store businesses on Chicago's West Madison St. within blocks of one another. Not only were they good friends, but our families were also close. You always impressed me as a sincere, loving person. Thank you for for your many kindnesses over the years. May God keep you well and watch over your family.

Uncle Andy, I will alway remember your laugh - the sound of it and the way you put your whole body into it. Even as I write about your contagious laugh now, it makes me smile. I sure will miss that laugh at the Christmas Eve parties. Love you.

Sorry for your loss. Andy always had the best sense of humor. Your family is in my prayers.

Andy, I will never forget when you drove my boat while I was water skiing. Right into all the rocks. Will miss you.

sorry for your loss, your family is in our thoughs and prayers
