There are no words that say how I feel miss you every day and night watch over us my brother love your brother

Andy lived life the way it was meant to be lived. He spent all of his time doing for others and not thinking about himself. He touched more lives in his short 38 years here in this world than most of us will in our entire lives. If he could talk to us right now he would tell us all to stop being such babies and have some fun! Get busy celebrating the way I lived and stop sobbing over the way that I died. It makes me think that he always knew that his time here was precious and short. He truly lived in every moment, he would not let his time be taken by the past and he wouldn't give it to the future. He held onto every moment of his existence with both hands, and admired it like he would never see it again. All of us right now are experiencing the truth of how valuable time is, but will you still remember this feeling in a month or in a year? I would hope so, because that way Andy's death is not in vain. He would love nothing more than to check in on us and see that we are all living our lives just a little more in the present, admiring every moment with our friends and family as if we will never have that moment again, because guess what… you never will.

R.I.P Dad...I'm still watching supernatural and it makes me think of you everytime I watch it...the all you can eat buffets just aren't the same with you gone...I miss your smile,your laugh and all the fun times we had... We will always keep you alive in our hearts...I love you and miss you so much...your little man

I miss you so much daddy and I will always love you....your sweetpea

Andy, 

You stole my heart many years ago when you called our house for help after your car broke down on the highway.  You bacame a part of my family.  I will miss your smiling face and your hugs.  I love you, Andy.  Rest in God's Peace.  Ma

Andy, you wereTalbottrst boy I ever loved you will always hold a special place in my heart. I remember every moment we shared. I was only 13 when we started dating those were some of the best years of my life. You will be truly missed I still can't believe I will never see you again. At least not in this life. See you in the next world. Love you!

You have touched so many lives, and you will be greatly missed by all of those fortunate enough to have known you for your short time here on earth. I wish to extend my heart- felt condolences to your mother and father, as the loss of a child is inconceivable.  Your wife's loss is also great, as her loss is one experienced by the bond shared only by a husband and wife--and every moment of every day she will be reminded of that loss each time she looks into your children's faces.  Your children's loss however, is the greatest of all, as they will never have the chance to know you like so many of us have. You shared with me, time and again, your devotion and conviction for the love and well being of your wife and children, and for me this was one of many admirable attributes that your life has imprinted on this earth.  My promise to you Andy is to provide the emotional support to your wife, and to keep your memory alive for your children:  and 22 years holds a lot of stored memories to share with them. 

Rest in Peace dear son-in-law.

With much sympathy to your whole family. May it comfort you to know that others care, and may you find new hope and peace in the days ahead and comfort knowing he is with those you love that passed before him.

I'm very sad to hear of your passing, I'll remember you as a real nice guy.

â€œThey that love beyond the world cannot be separated by it. Death cannot kill what never dies.â€.  Andy will NEVER die and already lives on through his kids and in our hearts!  While I mourn I can't help but think why God chose Andy, and then I smile ( like Andy's little smirk ) and it's clear to me that smirk meant Andy already had it figured out and now he will watch over us until we figure it out!  In God's Care, go in Peace, I Love you Boii  !!!! 

Your Best Friend Forever,
Arvid Rathburn
