Drew was a positive light in our everyday lives and a gift and blessing to all. His unbreakable bonds in friendship were testament to that. He was an exceptional athlete with a passion for playing soccer, baseball, basketball and golf. Drew was a gifted leader; he was Varsity Captain and received multiple Ohio Capital Conference and District awards. Drew battled Leukemia with strength and grace. He always put everyone else first. The family is grateful to all the doctors, nurses and staff at Nationwide Children’s Hospital. Everyone who met Drew loved him. He will be dearly missed by many uncles, aunts, cousins and friends, but never forgotten and his memory will live on. We carry his heart in our heart.
