Melvin will be remembered as a dedicated, hardworking, loving husband, father, grandfather, great-grandfather, and friend who was talented at most anything he attempted. He enjoyed life to the fullest regardless of his circumstances. While he will be deeply missed by loved ones, we can take comfort in knowing he is now in the presence of his Lord and Savior Jesus Christ and reunited with family and friends who also found eternal life in Heaven because of Christ’s free gift of salvation through His death on the cross and resurrection three days later.
Melvin is preceded in death by wife, Carol Willis Andry, parents Louis and Gladys Andry, and brother Lawrence Andry.
He is survived by daughter Kim Andry; son, Gary (Dana) Andry; sisters Barbara (Malvin) Mican, Kathy Smith, and Elaine (Craig) Peterson; and beloved sister-in-law, Glenda Jo Parker. Melvin will be lovingly remembered by three beautiful granddaughters, Ashley (Keith) Kopec, Kaitlyn (Daniel) Barreto-Bonilla, and Kelsey Andry, as well as his eight great grandchildren.
