  2. You will always be remembered. Now your with Debbie so we know you are not alone . Teri, Steve, and Jacob

  3. I am so sorry for your loss. Although I have not seen Andy in many, many years, I will always carry good memories of him as an energetic and fun-loving little boy at Grandma Taylor’s house. You all are in our thoughts and prayers. May God give you comfort, strength and rest in this season of grief.

  4. It hurts so much that not only Andy’s brother and sisters has lost a gem of a brother and that Dottie has lost the most wonderful son any mother could hope for, it saddens me, that the world has lost some one special. I remember Andy from the time I saw him at a graduation party for Scott, Beverly and Terry at his Grandma Taylor’s house, how much energy he had and the joy he brought to everyone there. Andy you have a reward in heaven and know that your Aunt Frances and Aunt Jenny loves you still and you will always be in our hearts and memories.

  5. Drew was a great friend. I remember many times laughing at his unique humor and the antics we had. He surprised me with his artistic talent, dedication to family and his career. I regret not checking in with him in recent years, and it is a shock to randomly see this in a FB timeline. May he rest in peace and I hope the family knows he wants them to all be happy and carry on as he seemed to always have a rock solid shoulder to lean on. RIP
