Andres was a wonderful husband, a great father, and awesome grandpa and super great grandpa.  He was always ready to lend a helping hand and wouldn’t think twice about going the extra mile for anybody in need.  Andres was a retired truck driver, who drove for over 40 years. He was a man of many trades.  There was nothing that he could not solve or fix.  His work and growing up stories will always be remembered and cherished.  Andres was a man of great wisdom and compassion. He taught his family the value of having good morals, respect, and love of God.

Andres enjoyed spending his time drinking a cup of coffee and visiting with friends and family, morning walks with his 2 dog companions, Mickey and Condi, doing yard and garden work, restoring classic cars, playing Dominos and attending Sunday Mass.  He has left a grand hole in our hearts and will be missed dearly, but there is comfort knowing he is with our Creator.
