Andrew Richard Busch

Andrew received his Bachelor's degree from SVSU. He worked for BSN sports as a sales professional and prior to that was a team sales manager at Johnny Mac’s sporting goods for many years. He married the love of his life, Jennifer, on October 23, 1993 at St. Mary's Cathedral in Saginaw, MI. They built a wonderful life together in East Lansing. Andrew was a devoted husband, a loving father, and an active community member. One of Andrew's most significant contributions was through his involvement in the Knights of Columbus, where he exemplified the values of charity, unity, and fraternity.

Andrew's caring and nurturing nature extended beyond his family. He spent countless hours coaching his sons' baseball team, fostering a love for the sport in the next generation and inspiring young athletes to reach their full potential. Additionally, his passion for baseball led him to take on roles as a board member of both the East Lansing Baseball Club and the East Lansing Softball Club, where he selflessly worked to improve the local sports community.

Throughout his life, Andrew found solace and purpose in his faith as an active member of St. Casimir Parish until its closing. One of Andrew's most treasured hobbies was organizing the annual Corn Roast 5k Fundraiser. This event was a testament to his exceptional organizational skills and his determination to make a difference in the lives of those around him.

Above all else, Andrew's greatest joy in life was his children. He took immense pride in their accomplishments and actively supported them in their pursuits such as Young Life, U.S. Marines, and Michigan State Baseball.

Andrew Busch will be remembered as a responsible, caring, and gentle soul who touched lives with his kindness and dedication. His legacy will live on through the lives he influenced, the memories he created, and the lessons he taught. He will be deeply missed and loved by all who knew him.
