Andrew was a wonderful son, brother, father, soul mate, uncle, nephew, and friend. He loved his family and was always lending a helping hand when needed. Andy enjoyed making things, woodworking, and creating beautiful clocks, knives, and other items. He had wisdom and insight on life's trials and tribulations that were valued by many.

If I close my eyes I can still smell that cotton candy lotion that even if u didn’t really like it, u atleast humored me and Sierra jo! I have so many great memories and will always cherish each and every single one of them. Not a day goes by that I don’t miss u and wish that we were still together, but I have learned that everything happens for a reason although I might not understand…. I also know that one day we will all be together again and be a happy loving family like we were before! Until that day Daddy Rest In Peace I love u too the moon! Ur little girl

"Skip with me Daddy, I promise I wont laugh... Please Daddy just skip with me"
9 years have come and gone so quickly yet it seems as though its been a lifetime since I seen ur smiling face! Although there is nothing that will ever dull this ache that resides inside my heart, I find that all of the memories I cherish so much will get me thru until we can be together again....

Andy;
I wish I could be with you. I never thought that my life would be so empty without you.
I guess when we were together life was just so easy and we took things for granted. It truly opens your eyes when one day you're left alone to face things, to face a very lonely life without the one you love.
Life has lost purpose and direction. Nothing means what it did before you past away. I just don't have the strength or energy to find happiness anymore. I just want to be with you.
Nikkie is a grown woman with a life that doesn't need or appreciates a mother around all the time. Although I have adjusted to that and have learned to accept that, she lives in a very small bedroom with me that I have been renting for the last 2 1/2 years from a woman in Heber.
I so wish I could turn back time.
I would do things to prepare myself.
I would look at life and myself differently.
But none of that is possible.
Just as being with you is not possible right now.
But I want you to know....

....I miss you so. I think of you everyday..sometimes all day. I love you more than you could ever imagine. And it hasn't gotten easier with time. Nor has time healed the wound. I can only say this...
I hope that we will be together soon...very soon. All my love...All my life...
R.I.P. Andrew.

Another year.... Wow! I swear I thought it would get easier as time goes by, but it doesnt.... I miss u just as much today if not more than I did the day u left! I know ur here with us even tho we cant c u, I feel u! Whenever I get smart with Mom I feel u crawl up the back of my neck, and when I have one of those moments that only my Daddy would understand, I feel u beside me.... And yes from time to time I even feel those wet willys u send my way!!! But what I wouldnt give for them dirty socks on my pillow or for those wet willys for real! I love u Daddy and miss u much more than any words could ever say! Until we r together again Rest In Peace I love u....
     Ur little girl,
               Niki

Its hard to believe its been eight years...I , if anything miss you more as time goes by. I sometimes wonder if life would be different if you were still here...but I know that my life would be very different. You had a way of making things better and easier. If only we could turn back time. I know your in such a better place. But I still would trade and or give up anything to have you back here.
So often I think about you and about us. We had a good life overall. Yes we had our hard times but together we made it through. Its so much more complicated my myself. I've never gotten used to being alone.
You made me smile and you made me laugh. You made me more confident and you made me feel so whole.
I hope that you are happier and more relaxed up there. You deserve that.
I will always miss you.
I will always love you.
I will always feel the loss of you. And I will always look up and know your looking down. Rest in peace my love. ..until we meet again....
You will always be my forever.

Happy birthday Andrew. Another year without year. Another day of shared embraces and long slow kisses that no longer exist. Just like you...they are gone but not forgotten...forever mine and forever missed.I miss you more than I ever imagined I can't help but want and need just one more chance to be held on too.The comfort and safety I felt with you...can never be felt again. Your vast ability to make me happy and to make me know that everyday together with you was truly the best gift of all. I could never give to you even close to what I got from you.
Thank you for an amazing life together. You made me a better person with your love...I am the luckiest person is a memory and I can't help wishing you were still here with me.qq a szsDssss we dISs DADS XxX XXX

Waking up to face another day in this world without this man is always difficult, what I wouldn't give to see his smiling face once again, or hear his voice... Hey I would even settle for that "know ur in trouble" look! Nothing can ever take his place or come close, foever and always my Daddy is my hero!! I love n miss u dad too the moon n back!!! Rest in peace until we meet again

As a tribute to Andy, I ask that those of you who were family and friends light a candle in his honor on December 17th of each year. Doing this will show your love and kindness for the great man that he was. A loyal and valued man who helped many in his life. Lighting a candle will celebrate his life, and keep his memory alive.
Thank you.

Happy Birthday Babe

August 14, 2018

You would have been 61 years old today.....I can't believe it's been 5 1/2 years. I miss you babe so very much. I still find myself laughing at how you stood behind me as I got ready for work every morning and you would say "I'm not only better looking but I'm also younger than you". Then you would chuckle and say " Good thing I love you". You thought you were so funny. I miss your laugh... I miss how your eyes sparkeld...I miss everything about you. I hope you know I think about you all the time but today we will celebrate your special today in loving memory of how wonderful and caring you were. Today is time for sharing the love and happiness you brought to so many people. I love you Andy. R.I.P. ...until I can once again be with you.

My fondest memory.....

June 11, 2017

FFrom the beginning of our relationship Andy had a remarkable sense of humor. He would always know just when and how to make me laugh. Although I could think of many antics he would over the years bestow upon me , I fondly recall this one...

Every morning we would share the bathroom as we got ready for the day. I would always be rushed and running late while Andy was always calm and on time for his day. As I took a final look in the mirror before departing he was always standing behind me with this grin on his face and he would say to me " Not only am I younger than you but I'm also better looking!" He would then chuckle and kiss me affectionately.

If only I could hear those words one more time...
