He was blessed to have the honor of being a godparent to Devin Fraiser, Angel Chavez, and his niece Mia Rose.
Although Andrew was faced with many great physical battles . . . more battles than most of us will ever have to face in our lifetime, he was always able to smile and laugh and live his life to the fullest.
From traveling to snowboarding, sky diving to boating, Andrew enjoyed and appreciated the time God gave him here on Earth.
We will remember him for his charismatic ways, his positive attitude, his amazing and charming smile, his baby-blue eyes, his contagious laugh and his determination and strong will to overcome his life struggles and challenges and to always be able to say, "Everything is gonna be okay."
