Andrew, I can't believe you've been gone a whole year already!! Our lives have been forever changed without you here.  But we take comfort in knowing that you have your wings now,  and are flying with all the other angels, who left us too soon.... Love and miss you baby boy!! Aunt Pam 

There are so many memories pouring out of my head right now. From JA climbing on top of countertops as a toddler to jumping off the roof onto the trampoline in middle school. He was always up for an adventure. I am so grateful for the years I had to share with my baby brother and I will always cherish all those memories. I love you JA. Rest peacefully. 

I didn't know Andrew super well but i do have some memories with him. 
Andrew went to Clinton with me until i left in 6th grade. We would always go skating at Funtime Skating Rink and have so much fun. He was one of the funniest people i had ever met in my life. Once i left Clinton, i never saw him again until i was 17. I saw him at a popular social spot in Hattiesburg and i had nobody to talk to so i just sat next to him and he started up a conversation to kill the awkwardness haha! He asked where i was from and i told him Clinton. He said "Me too!" so, i asked him what his name was. When he told me i was speechless! i said "You're Andrew!? You look so grown!" He thought that was the funniest thing ever. So then the rest of the night we talked about all of our old memories and how we wish we could be a kid again. The night ended, we went our separate ways, and didn't talk again but on social media every once in awhile. Then when i was 19, we met again at a popular Clinton social spot. It was the first i had seen him in 2 years! "long time no see!" he gave me a hug, and we talked for hours. I was having some hard times and he gave some advice that i will hold with me for the rest of my life. He was the most sweetest, caring, and genuine person i had ever met. I was truly blessed to have had a friend like Andrew. My prayers are with his friends and family, we all know how much he loved them. 

Dear Penny and family - We are so, so sorry to hear the news about Andrew.  I can't imagine what you are going through.  Just know that you are loved and I miss seeing you.  Larry and I are still sheltering in place so we will miss the service but we are there with you in our hearts.

Love,

So sorry for your loss. My hearts goes out to you. May God bless you and your family during this difficult time. 

My sweet nephew, you brought so much joy to me and all of our family. Your sweet smile could light up a room. I'll never forget all the times, when I lived in Clinton, and you and your buddies, would just appear, out of nowhere, to visit me!! Man, what I would give to visit with you one more time. I know you're up there having a grand time with all the family. Fly high, sweetheart!! Your little baby footprints are forever etched in my broken heart. I love you always, Aunt Pam

John Andrew was a very special person but in his own way. He was his own leader and followed his own set of drums.  For several years of hunting with his family i would get a grin or a nod when trying to talk with him.  I will value and miss his time and friendship and that unique smile he had for the rest of my life.  You will truly be missed.  I hope the family will feel mine and Earlene's prayers this very hard time of their lives.  LOVE
