Born February 24, 1952 to the late Henry and Barbara Gorecki. An educated, honor student in Poland, Papa G will always be remembered for his unforgettable personality, his generous heart and his deep love for his family.

Andy emigrated from Poland to America in 1969 and later became a U.S. Citizen which meant the world to him. He had many careers but the one he was most proud of was his career in law enforcement. Papa G’s honest hard working personality made him many friends over the years.
