These thoughts written by Paul Irion are how Drew's family feels:
A DEATH HAS OCCURRED
A death has occurred and everything is changed. We are painfully aware that life can never be the same again, that yesterday is over, that relationships once rich have ended.
If life now went on the same, without the presence of the one who has died, we could only conclude that the life we remember made no contribution, filled no space, meant nothing.
The fact that this person left behind a place that cannot be filled is a high tribute to this individual. Life can be the same after a trinket has been lost, but never after the loss of a treasure.
Services will be private. If anyone wishes to honor Andrew, contributions may be made to: Hammers and Angels.
