We are so very saddened to hear of Andy’s passing. Our hearts, thoughts, and prayers are with you all.
My favorite memory of Andy is when is from when I was a young teen and babysitting he and Brad regularly. Aunt Karen and Uncle Bill instructed me to stand them in the corner if they misbehaved.One day he did something (I don’t remember what) and got put in the corner. Of course he was a clown and began sliding up and down the corner until he got cob webs in his nose. We got so very tickled and screamed with laughter which of course meant he got out of his corner time!!
Prayers and Thoughts to Andrews family. Love Always IN THE NAME OF JESUS
