Andre Joseph Bechamp

September 15, 1969 – March 29, 2015

It is with profound sadness that we lay Andre to rest. He passed away suddenly on March 29, 2015 at the young age of 45. Andre was very much loved and will be greatly missed by his parents Cecil and Aileen, sister Lisa and brother Keith, brother-in-law Michael and sister-in-law April. Sadly, Andre's 7-month-old nephew William and 3-year-old niece Abigail will never know the beautiful soul he was.

He will be fondly remembered by his aunts Carmen, Anne and his uncle Joe and aunt Kathy. Andre was adored by his cousins Vicky, David, Glen, Marcy, Martin, Tom and Zephalie. So many adventures, so many good times, so many laughs. Through his close friendship with his cousins and stories that are the stuff of family legend, he will be greatly missed by their spouses Gary, Nina, Joelle and their children Amber, Melanie, Tyler, Sarah, Hayden and Steccia. Andre will be fondly remembered by his younger cousins Steven, Karen, Susan and Christine. Sadly their spouses Justin and Tristan and his many little cousins Addyson, Aevry, Logyn, Olivia, Emma, Jeremy and Lauren will know him only through our pictures and memories.

His extended family, many friends and colleagues will miss him with heavy hearts. He is predeceased by his uncles Allan, Romeo, Mick and Ray and his grandparents Joseph, Susan, William and Reta.

Our dearest Andre, there are no words. You had such a generous, kind, heart and beautiful soul. You will always be in our hearts, we will miss you tremendously and you will never be forgotten. God willing, we will be together again one day. With all our love sweetheart. May you rest in peace.

Andre was a very giving person and often went out of his way to help the community’s most vulnerable. In lieu of flowers, the family has requested that donations be made to Covenant House in his memory.
