EntryNo: 192  Date: Friday 10:59 04.28.2006 J. Cusumano I am so sorry for your loss. They say time heals all wounds. I hope this is true.  EntryNo: 191  Date: Thursday 12:27 04.27.2006 Heidi I've been up to the cemetary a couple of times just to "check" on you, but it's not getting easier kiddo. (It's killing me to visualize your body underground). I miss you so much, and I just wish I knew when all the hurt and pain will stop. Jay left us with the message that from your funeral forward we should only laugh when remembering you and I've been trying, but I've been crying too. I love you so much, and your death has left me shaken. My faith is being challenged through this, and I'm praying so hard that I get through it with my beliefs still intact. Glen and I went to the house last Friday (4/21) and everyone was there...except you. It was the first time that I think the shock started to wear away and I TRULY realized that you're no longer here anymore. I was setting the table for dinner and I almost set a place for you. Things like that are so hard on everyone (especially your immediate family). I kept wanting to yell down to the basement:"Andrew, come up from the computer and eat with us!" I miss little things that you used to do...like requesting milk for dinner, all of the little facts that you would pick up during the day and then want to share with everyone, wrestling on the floor with Raven, asking me for a backrub and then BEGGING until I started laughing and said yes, rubber banding the cabinets at my parents' house together etc. Heaven has got to be a wonderful place because I can't imagine you being anywhere without laughter.... hnh129juno.com  EntryNo: 190  Date: Wednesday 20:25 04.26.2006 The Mercurios To The Kries; Thank you for this website and the beautiful photos. It gives me a place to go when I think of you and Andrew. John has been quiet but will find peace...just like each of you will in time. All Our Love.  EntryNo: 189  Date: Wednesday 19:47 04.26.2006 Amanda Mayberry I needed to write a poem for school and I didnt know what to write about...after I thought about it I decided to write about Andrew. It needed to have a specific rhyming pattern so its not great but here it is: Thump, thump and as rapid as a heartbeat A young child’s life was taken away No one thought that day that he and death would meet And no one should see their child die that way At 14, and with his birthday near With so many friends, and no reason to die It is impossible to think without a tear His heart could not take it but, why him, why? And like a heartbeat again his body’s not in sight Now learn to tell when your in pain seems right In our hearts always is everyone that dies We will miss you rest in peace Andrew Kries Even though I didn't know Andrew my family and friends told me so much about him RIP Andrew amanda12392aim.com  EntryNo: 188  Date: Tuesday 22:23 04.25.2006 Billy Carey I was pretty good friends with andrew i would walk home from school with him alot.Andrew was a great friend and when ifirst heard he was dead i couldnt believe it. villaskatercomcast.net  EntryNo: 187  Date: Tuesday 21:11 04.25.2006 Ryan Riccordella I've never met or even seen Andrew in my life, but I just so bad for what happened. Andrew was just an unlucky victim. It;s at times like this when we need to take a minute and reflect on what we have and how fortunate we are just to be alive. rymeister37Ayahoo.com  EntryNo: 186  Date: Tuesday 20:23 04.25.2006 Tyler, Domenicks little brother even though I never met Andrew I heard he was a great man and that he had determination and he focused on school he tried his best on everything and he followed through.

R.I.P ANDREW KRIES domenick  EntryNo: 184  Date: Tuesday 15:50 04.25.2006 SMED Hm Andrew. this sunday was a pretty lonely one. I cleaned my room and the whole house and slaved over everything to remember that you weren't going to be coming over . I miss sundays very much. I miss our walks and talks and that cat you always seemed to get to follow us. and I miss your bad taste in movies. I cant yell at anyone anymore for bringing over a bad movie. I also miss you making fun of my pearl necklace "Hi my name is Sarah and I wear pearl necklaces and its quite sexy and I'm pretty" I always remember when you said that. My dad also misses talking "man talk" as you guys explained it was to me. He misses the football ,golf, fishing, and whatever talks very much. And my mom misses your face at the door. It feels so routine for me to just clean on sundays now or just expect your visit. The DeGeorges definetly miss your presence.

For a young kid, you seemed ahead of the game and it was my pleasure to have known you, from the times you stopped over after school. That goofy smile of yours and gaze that you had when you stepped inside the theatre, makes me realize all my efforts are well worth it. You probably would have found yourself being an usher in the theatre at some point this year, I know you had potential. At least you had the chance to see the building before most people will. I'm sure I will think of you when I see something funny on the screen after the place opens. Who knows....maybe you will be watching when I screen the movies on a Thursday night. "You are hereby issued an eternity pass to any feature film or presentation at this establisment" Se ya at the movies.... Your Friend, Marco matteofilmshotmail.com  EntryNo: 182  Date: Monday 22:31 04.24.2006 Aunt Debbie and Uncle Leon As we try to organize our thoughts about what to say, we are reminded over and over again, that this life isn't about us, but about how God uses each and everyone of us to bring glory to his name. We want to believe that Andrew is serving God and that God is saying to Andrew, "Well done, good and faithful servant." We don't believe God caused Andrew to die. We believe a terrible, physical malfunction in Andrew's body took his life from him. The only thing we do know and believe the older we get is that everything happens for a reason. God promises to walk with us through our trials and tribulations. He is the great comforter and feels our loss as greatly as we do. Didn't he sacrifice his son for us on the cross? He died so that we might live. Given prior knowledge that Andrew's last day would be Palm Sunday evening, we all would have done everything in our power to prevent the events that followed. However, that was not the way it happened. We have been encouraged to read in many of the messages that Andrew's friends wrote, that many of them have been churched and also believe that God has a plan for each of us. As we read the messages from his friends, it is so obvious that Andrew's life touched people's lives with laughter and love. We are commanded to love one another. Andrew lived out this commandment the best he could daily. When we remove the "ifs" and "shoulds" of life, (if we only did this, or if we only did that, or if I'd been nicer, or if I only told them that I loved them... or I should have realized, I should have been there, I should have seen it coming) we can begin to remove the guilt we feel. We feel guilty, because we feel so helpless seeing a loved one suffer. To Andrew's friends: Andrew wanted to live life with no regrets. According to everything we are reading from all of his friends, he loved life! What an amazing young man. What an impact he has had on your peer group. We pray that you do indeed remember him, not just these few weeks since he is gone, but for months and years to come. We pray that when you grow up and have families of your own, you will tell stories about your friend, Andrew, and what an impact he had on your life. ... And, as special as he was to you, you also, must have been very special to him. To Kenny and Heather... our dearest friends-we are helpless to take away the hurt you are feeling...we could no more have prevented this tragedy from happening than you could...we are broken, too, and can only do what we believe friends can do,...be there for you whenever you need us, love you when you can't love yourselves, because you are hurting so badly,...pray for you without ceasing, be ready to listen when you want to talk, cry when you want to cry, laugh when we can...and remember the boy we loved so much. We will get through this, not this moment, not tomorrow, or next week, but eventually and we promise to walk with you each step of the way, as you need us. We love you both so much. To Jay, Alyssa, Mike, and Megan... You are our extended family, and we love you like sons and daughters. We are so incredibly proud of all of you and humbled by the deep love and affection you have for one another and for your parents. Of the 10 commandments, the most crucial is to honor your mother and father. The other 9 follow that commandment. You have demonstrated this commandment by loving and honoring your parents since you were babies and you have been blessed because of this obedience. As much as you all have expressed that you are better people for having known and loved Andrew, he, too, was a better person for having the four of you for role models. Your relationships with one another are intertwined and unable to be broken. He has only gone on before you and you will be reunited in death. (Hopefully, not for many, many years to come.) If knowing and loving him, has made you see this more clearly, then maybe that is part of the greater plan and purpose of God. To Andrew... The following is a writing from a book of prayers that Uncle Leon has and it sincerely expresses how we feel... "We give back to you, O God, those whom you gave to us. You did not lose them when you gave them to us, and we do not lose them by their return to you. Your Son has taught us that life is eternal and love cannot die. So death is only a horizon, and a horizon is only the limit of our sight. Open our eyes to see more clearly, and draw us closer to you, so that we may know we are nearer to our loved ones, who are with you. You have told us that you are preparing a place for us: prepare us, that where you are we may be always, O dear Lord of life and death." William Penn (1644-1718) "Andrew, are there rubber bands in heaven?" Love you forever!!!! Aunt Debbie & Uncle Leon dlhendershsotatt.net  EntryNo: 181  Date: Monday 18:42 04.24.2006 George M. Andrew, you were a great person, life will never be the same, knowing that I will never ever see you again in gym, or watch you make funny faces at Senora Hayes behind her back. I can't even put into words how good of a person Andrew was. A.S.K., I ASK why did he have to go so soon, why did god take him so quickly? It was to early, and he had his whole life ahead of him. No one will ever forget Andrew, weather it is a "GI GEORGE!" joke, or just something to make me laugh, I will miss it incredibly. I wish the Kries's the best of luck, and Andrew...save a seat for me up there...thanks Always, GI GEORGE MOORE  EntryNo: 180  Date: Monday 18:15 04.24.2006 Meganruth andrew, wow everythings soo weird without you. i miss you like crazy everyday.. i miss you not being there to push me out of your way and all the other things you used to do. every joke you craked brought smiles to EVERYONE'S faces. gym is so empty and to see that empty spot, hurts everytime . your life ended so short, and you had so much to live for,so much to look forward to. like the site says, everyones life is better for having known you, you were an amazing kid, and i don't know a single person who could EVER say a bad thing about you, and even if they DARED to.. i think i would PERSONALLY KICK THEIR BEHIND ! almost everyday i peek at the pictures of you that i found from the last day of 3rd grade, and they are some of the funniest pictures i have..those memories are in my heart forever , i really miss you. and i wish you were still here to share more memories with. i'm sure you know how much everyone loves you and misses you, i just wish i could have had some more meaningful last words to you my dear friend. sarah and your family and all of your friends miss you dearly . i want to thank you for the strength that you have given everyone and especially your family and sarah. mann sarah what a girl.. she really loves you hun! well yea..i don't think i can ever talk to -CENSORED-y corey again everytime i think of him or talk to him, it just makes me think of the memories from last year and all the fun me you -CENSORED-y corey and ash had together! well i miss you so much. can't wait until i can see you again! i know you're in a better place and the only reason you're gone is because jesus loved you so much... that he wanted you all for himself rest in peace my friend Andrew Sean Kries 7/28/91-4/9/06 ONLY THE GOOD DIE YOUNG meganruth MeganRuth_619hotmail.com  EntryNo: 179  Date: Monday 16:58 04.24.2006 Meaghan i didn't know andrew at all. i moved before i could meet him. emilee told me about what happened and i coulndt believe it. my hands started to shake and the thought of someone dying so young just made me so sad. emilee kept txting me for the whole week and i even started crying. i wish i got to meet you andrew!!! love meaghan mm006sbcglobal.net  EntryNo: 178  Date: Monday 16:43 04.24.2006 alyssa cornwell andrew i can not believe u r gone! out of all of the people in the world u did not deserve this...

Normally on a rainy Saturday, I would call you and we would go to the movies, or go to Wal-Mart, or just hang out at the house. Those things seemed so simple and normal at the time. This is still so hard to get used to. No one will ever take your place. I hope wherever you are, you know that. I miss you bro. It's going to be tough finding our way without you here. Missing you...  EntryNo: 172  Date: Saturday 16:19 04.22.2006 kaitlyn bengivenga Andrew was such a good kid and he always made everyone laugh when they were sad.

I heard the boyscouts and some volunteers were going to do that. I was actually going to help as well. R.I.P. Andrew Kries You're still alive inside of everyone. chris0294verizon.net  EntryNo: 170  Date: Thursday 22:58 04.20.2006 Emmalyn Raynor I was never blessed to meet Andrew, as I've just met his sister, Megan, in the past two months....and we were instant friends, and we're planning on living together next year at college! I spend time with and listen to Megan and realize that Andrew is still an indescribably important part of many people's lives. From pictures, I can feel his sense of humor! What a great blessing he has been to so many people -- his story and legacy has touched my life...and for never meeting him, that's a well-done feat!! I've suffered an immediate family loss too, and to the Kries family - though I've only briefly met some of you, my heart reaches so far out to you all. I hope, wish, and pray for you too the strength and healing and peace that has come day by day for me...it's a never-ending process, but Andrew will help it along. I am anxious to get to you know all...and through you, I can get to know Andrew, too. Much love, prayers, and care, Emmalyn Raynor raynorshine17yahoo.com  EntryNo: 169  Date: Thursday 18:46 04.20.2006 courtney willis To andrew's family, I feel like a bad person because i didnt go to andrew's wake. I wanted to remember him how he was. I just want to make up for not paying my respects to you, his family. Andrew was an amazing person and he was so much fun to hang out with by the rope swing. I will always remember those great memories. His words will always stick with me too. "All men with honor are kings." Andrew must've been the king of the world. -courtney willis courtneyneedsalifeyahoo.com  EntryNo: 168  Date: Thursday 16:54 04.20.2006 kim d wow. andrew gone? thats something i really couldnt believe. i miss you so much. half of my classes are BORING because your not here anymore. i remember you use to tell me i had no friends. haha i use to get so upset because it seemed like you were sooo serious. oh yeah..i really miss cracking jokes about mrs. hayes with you..my espanoll buddy..jeez who am i gonna talk to now? and science.. science is SILENT without you.. no more IM RICK JAMES or dancing around in the classroom. hmm..mathh was horrible when you were first gone. but now we just share mems that we had with you..uhmm andrew.. you were the only one i texted during class to. god and you were the only one who took a picture of my perfect care bare!! yeah we had a lot of mems and now half of that is gone.. i miss you so much..and really ..you dont know what youve done !!! hahaha OUR SCHOOL STINKSS NOW!! rest in peace -kim « previous page next page »
