The words “love” and “compassion” epitomized Andee. Andee was kind, funny, and a friend to everyone she met. When she hugged you, she did so with so much warmth and affection, that you carried her love for hours afterwards. She dearly loved her husband, parents, sister, family and friends. Andee was a compassionate and dedicated animal advocate. She worked tirelessly in the rescue and placement of countless dogs in coordinated efforts with East Tennessee Alliance for Animals. Andee’s love for her family, eight dogs, and her rescue involvement brought great happiness and fulfillment to her life. She will be missed desperately by all of us who loved her.
She was preceded in death by her son, Chad Brackett, her grandparents Sara Mauldin, and Sam and Mary Yurjevic.
Andee is survived by her husband, John Veal, son, Brad Brackett, stepchildren, Sarah Veal and Josh Veal, parents, Bob and Georgianna Yurjevic, sister, Terry Ramey, grandson, Mason Brackett, aunts, uncle, niece and cousins.
