Andres was a man of quiet strength, and immense character. Above all, he was a hard worker. His hands built a life not just for himself, but for everyone he loved. But beyond his work ethic, he was a loving husband, father and grandfather. Andres will be remembered for the love he shared with his family, the memories he created throughout his life, and the lasting impact he had on those who knew and loved him.
He is now reunited in Heaven with his beloved wife, Amelia Pedraza; his grandson, Jon Andrew Pedraza; his parents, Pablo Pedraza and Marcelina Ruiz; and his siblings, Juanita Rodriguez, Luis “Fito” Pedraza, Emma Pacheco, Frances Montelongo, and Bobby Rodriguez.
Andres leaves behind a beautiful family who will continue to cherish his memory. He is survived by his children: Ninfa (Ramiro) Morin, Ruben (Pilar) Pedraza, Sylvia Pedraza, and Andres (Alicia) Pedraza Jr. He is also survived by his grandchildren, Aaron Lerma, Matthew Morin, Jennifer Ashley Pedraza, Anthony Andres Pedraza, and Samantha Renae Rodriguez, as well as his sister, Blanca Estela Pedraza.
Though his passing leaves an emptiness in the hearts of those who loved him, his memory will live on through his children, grandchildren, family, and all who had the privilege of knowing him. His love, wisdom, and the memories he created will be treasured always. He will always be in our hearts.
