Andrew "Andy" Anthony Bogan, a cherished son, brother, friend, and patriot, departed this world on April 27, 2024, in Evansville, Indiana, at the age of 39, surrounded by his loving family. Born on April 21, 1985, in Evansville, Indiana, to Anthony "Tony" Ray Bogan and Theresa Ann (Dixon) Bogan, Andy's journey touched the lives of many. A proud graduate of Reitz High School in 2003, Andy served his country with honor in the Air Force from 2005 to 2009. His dedication and service exemplified his commitment to duty and love for his country. Following his military service, Andy embraced various roles, including Assistant Manager at Royal Car Wash. However, his true passion lay in the outdoors, where he found solace in activities such as shooting guns, fishing, camping, and indulging in his love for gaming. Andy's infectious laugh and radiant smile could illuminate any room, and his remarkable sense of humor endeared him to all who knew him. Generous to a fault, Andy's kindness and appreciation touched the hearts of everyone he encountered. Andy leaves behind a legacy of love and cherished memories.

He is reunited in eternity with his grandparents, Sue and Sam Bogan, and Barb and Charles Dixon, along with his cousin, Chase Hagen and his beloved dog, Soupy, who preceded him in death.
