It is sad now that both of our parents are gone but one cannot grieve too much over lives that were lived and lived well to the fullest. Together, they provided a perfect balance and great examples for us. They are everything I am today with a little spice thrown in. (ha ha)... Their legacy will live on for many generations. Family and friends were the ultimate focus in their lives and it showed. The memories will sustain us always. No one knows how long they will have on this earth but what I do know is that we can only take one day at a time being truly grateful, humble and loving and savoring all that is good one moment at a time...

I will alway remember Andre's smile and happy stories about him and my Dad's days in the Air Force.They had a wonderful friendship for 59 years and now they are in Heaven together telling war stories all over again. Andre will be missed but he had a wonderful life and I know Elizabeth is so glad to see him again at her side. May God Bless the entire Andre Family on Earth.
