EntryNo: 642  Date: Wednesday 21:15 04.09.2014 Hannah Thinking of you today Andrew <3 hannahduffy3gmail.com  EntryNo: 641  Date: Wednesday 20:38 04.09.2014 Alyssa Dear Andrew, Well today was one of those days where the sunny was shining, the breeze was blowing, and spring was in the air- the kind of weather that you would have spent all day outside playing in and that's exactly what the boys and I did. And as I sat there watching them pour water from buckets to make mud puddles, all I could think about was you- the way you would come in from playing out back covered in dirt and mud, the way you'd hurry to keep up during our Merrill Creek hikes, the way you would smile and laugh, sing and tell stories, the way you would view the world with wonder and love. I tell the boys stories about you, Andrew, and in so many ways they remind me of you. Although at times my heart breaks when I think of how much you would have loved being an uncle to our two wild and crazy boys and your sweet little niece Andrea, I know that you are watching over all of us. Nathan keeps a picture of you in his room and says that you are his angel. We all love you and miss you so much, Andrew, and always, always will. Love, Alyssa alyssakrieshotmail.com  EntryNo: 640  Date: Wednesday 09:07 04.09.2014 Dad Andrew, Eight years has brought so much change and many special moments to the Kries family. This I am so thankful for. Though I just wish you could have been here to be a part of it. However I have come to terms with the fact that you indeed are a large part of it indeed. Your life and lessons you thought about how to love family and live life to the fullest did not go unnoticed. You were always fun and I do miss the fun. Quite a team we made just needling your siblings. Klondikes, hiking, meetings, parades, summercamps, white water rafting with big brother Mike, the beach jamm and your look when I decided to go on the big wooden roller coaster, concerts, airsoft with Mike and his gang trips out with your other big brother Jay and visits to TCNJ, Megans sweet sixteen party with you being the only one singing on the karioke machine, Jays 25th birthday party when you sang and also when you were hymotized and had your head on Alyssa's shoulder,when you would light up your moms day by saying hola mama. Andrew I could go on and on here thats for sure as you did leave your footprints on everyones Heart here. Your legacy lives on by the way your life impacted and altered so many others in such a positive way. To make my point we hear from your pal and my Drew Buddy Vanderhorn and I think knowing you has had a very positive impact on his life too. Your life and time here counted and I know our time together was great and you made me a better man. Andrew I miss you so much and Love you Your Dad  EntryNo: 639  Date: Wednesday 08:25 04.09.2014 Mike Stewart It's been 8 years but it feels like yesterday. One of the finest young men I ever met in my years as a Scout leader. Your not forgotten Andrew, and never will be. mike721gmail.com  EntryNo: 638  Date: Wednesday 00:25 04.09.2014 Mike It's been eight years since we lost you, but I think of you every day. I treasure the memories we shared together. Our hikes in the woods behind the house (mountain-climbing was what we called it, even though they're really just steep hills), whitewater rafting with Boy Scouts, and all the Airsoft battles are a few that I think of often. I miss you, Andrew, and I wish you had met my daughter, and your nephews as well. I hold onto the hope that I'll see you again when my time comes. Take good care of my lost little one, and give Raven a belly rub. I love you, Andrew. andreasdaddyyahoo.com  EntryNo: 637  Date: Tuesday 16:26 02.25.2014 RodriguezP Hi Andrew, I know we've never met before, but just from reading the things your parents and other family and friends have said about you, makes me feel as if I did know you. You were most definitely an aspiring component of your family and through them, you are still alive. I'm more than half way through with my senior year in high school at Warren Hills and reading your story has just made me look back on the past and reminisce. Not a day goes by that I don't think of all the important people in my life that I have lost but I am forever grateful to be able to say that God blessed me with them and the people in my life. That said, you were a blessing to your family and friends. You are truly a life changing story. rodriguezp13ymail.com  EntryNo: 636  Date: Sunday 13:50 02.23.2014 Anonymous Hey Andrew, I've read your story, and it saddens me to see people like you, who seemed to have so much to offer the world, suddenly pass. It's sad to see that while you left your mark in this world, it had to be this way. My thoughts and prayers go out to you and family, whom I decided to leave these words to so they know that there are other people out there thinking of you. Take care, and rest in peace. phamktheresagmail.com  EntryNo: 635  Date: Saturday 10:28 02.22.2014 Philip Hazen Although I never met you, I just read about you and felt like I needed to write this...I lost my friend Adam in 6th grade to a severe Asthma attack. He was my schoolmate, my teammate, and my friend. Like Andrew, his passing was unforeseen. I didn't have a chance to say goodbye. I think about him often as I'm sure many people think about you. As I graduate this year at Warren Hills, I will think of him and of others who never got the chance to experience life. ph2496gmail.com  EntryNo: 634  Date: Wednesday 22:06 01.22.2014 Emilee As most of us enter our final semesters of college, I can't help but wonder where you would be today. As we go through the final months of college, I can only hope you're watching over all of us, especially at graduation with a huge smile on your face. I can't believe it's been almost 8 years since we've seen you, and it still feels like yesterday. I see your parents for ice cream at my work over the summer, and every time I just pray you'll walk up to the window with them like nothing ever happened. But I know you're always there with them in spirit. Keep watching down on all of us. I know we're all making you proud! Miss you <3 Emdancer84yahoo.com  EntryNo: 633  Date: Friday 17:06 01.17.2014 MOM Hello my son, I know I haven't written on here in awhile, not because I don't think of you but because I start crying every time I open up this site. Seven and a half years...it's unbelievable that you have been gone from us for so long. This Christmas Dad gave me a book about how to heal a grieving heart. As I was reading about how our loved ones never truly leave us and are always sending us signs that they are still around, the lights dimmed in the room remarkably. OK I got your message. You are always in my heart. Love you, Andrew thekriestergmail.com  EntryNo: 632  Date: Wednesday 22:52 12.25.2013 Andrews Dad It is christmas evening. Spent the day with our family but missed you so much. You are always in my thoughts and I will never forget our Christmas times with you and Jay, Mike, Megan, Alyssa, Mom and myself. Thanks for the great memories. Love you, Dad  EntryNo: 631  Date: Thursday 19:37 12.12.2013 Alyssa Dear Andrew, We think and talk about you all of the time, but I wanted to share with you a deja vu moment I had just the other day when talking with Nathan. He was trying to explain a pretty complex concept to me (at least pretty complex for a 3 1/2 year old) and the way in which he was speaking and all of his mannerisms reminded me so much of you. I will never forget the first time I heard you use the word "chasm". You couldn't have been more than nine years old and I remember thinking how incredibly smart you were and wise beyond your years. I so miss those conversations we used to have and the way you used to look at the world, but moments with the boys remind me so much of you and instantaneously bring back so many wonderful memories. I love you and miss you so much Andrew.

Friday is your niece's first birthday, and she just took her first steps Saturday night. I miss you and wish you could have been here to see how much she's grown up and how happy and beautiful she is. I know she would have had some huge smiles for her Uncle Andrew. andreasdaddyyahoo.com  EntryNo: 628  Date: Monday 12:49 08.12.2013 MOM Hello, my son. Saturday was the big day for Megan, your Dad and I were so happy, Megan was the most beautiful bride and she radiated happiness, and your brothers looked so handsome, your sisters-in-law dressed so pretty, Yet when we lined up for the family pictures, I couldn't help myself from counting to 4 and for a few seconds, wondering where you got off to. You are always in my heart, on special occasions it is especially difficult to not miss your smiling face and jokes. I was watching all Travis's friends out on the dance floor, Matt was out there, I like to think that you were out there, too. Miss you, Andrew, love you always, MOM thekriestergmail.com  EntryNo: 627  Date: Monday 00:09 08.12.2013 Mike Kries Andrew, This past weekend Megan and Travis got married. It was a beautiful ceremony and I would like to think that you were looking down on them as they start their lives together. We all miss you very much, especially when there is a big family event like this. Your niece is growing up so fast. She has a couple teeth already, and is working on a few more. She's very close to walking, and I see your curiosity in her. I tell he stories about her Uncle Andrew all the time. Just the other day I showed her your picture and she didn't want to let go of it. I miss and love you, Andrew. -Mike andreasdaddyyahoo.com  EntryNo: 626  Date: Friday 08:47 08.09.2013 Megan As Travis and I have been preparing for our wedding, we've often stopped to talk about you and remember so many times we've had together. Just the other day Travis and I were talking about you and how much we wish you could be at our wedding. Travis laughed, saying how he knew you would have been the center of attention at our wedding, eating up all of the attention. Though you will not physically be at our special day, we know that you will be there in spirit and in our hearts. We love you so much and miss you every single day. mkriesgmail.com  EntryNo: 625  Date: Sunday 00:13 07.21.2013 Jen Kries I've been wanting to say something here for a little over a year, but every time I load up this page my mind goes blank. By now I'm sure Michael has told you that you have a niece of whom is in your namesake. She's growing up so fast, and as much of my side as she is like there is no denying that she has your happy disposition. Your brother and I just talked about what we can imagine you saying about that: he thinks you'd comment about us naming a girl after you, but I'm going to go with something along the lines of "Of course you did, she's just as good looking as I am!" This lead into comments you might have said about other things from Michael's innate sense of direction (eyes rolling) to commentary during bad movie nights. I'm happy to say this conversation was filled with laughter. We even talked about the first time I officially met you. I can honestly say you're still the only person I have ever met that opened fire on his brother with an airsoft rifle in their parents's basement. I wonder very often if you have met my father and grandfather yet. If so I know that they're getting a hell of a kick out of you. I can see my father helping you keep your aim and what not up to par so that you're ready for when you see Michael again, and I can see my grandfather chatting with you about boyscouts and the like. As I close this and get ready to listen to Michael read your niece a bedtime story, I want to assure you that we are all chugging along to the best of our abilities, thinking of you as often as we breathe, keeping you in all of our prayers that we (the whole family) might be joined once more when the last of us crosses over. Until then, sleep well and dream of us as often as we do of you. <3 Valeosgemsgmail.com  EntryNo: 624  Date: Sunday 23:26 06.16.2013 Dad Andrew, Had to say hi to all my kids on Fathers Day. Miss your smile on these special days. Will never forget it and everything that made you so loved by all of us. See you again some day my son. Love Dad  EntryNo: 623  Date: Wednesday 19:56 04.10.2013 Sarah I can't believe it has been seven years since you were standing in my house about to walk out the door. I wish I had hugged you a few seconds longer, and really taken that moment in as being the last time I would see you. It is crazy seeing your grade growing up, and being so close to graduating from college next year. I wish you had been able to experience all the milestones in life as a teenager and a young adult in college because I know you would have appreciated every second of life you were given. Yesterday, I left you flowers at your grave, and hope you heard my prayers. I miss you. sarah.degeorgeyahoo.com  EntryNo: 622  Date: Tuesday 23:17 04.09.2013 Dad Andrew, Today is a little harder than the rest but I think of you and miss you each and every day. We had such big dreams you and I. There was your Eagle Scout Project to do in a big way. There was The Andrew & Dad Construction Company we had been planning on forming. High School, College,Marriage, children, becoming an uncle, your singing career, and well the list could go on forever. One of the things that made you unique and special was the fact that you loved life and doing anything. It was so refreshing to me seven years ago and will always be what I see when I close my eyes and think of you. The way that you just took everything life had to offer and had a smile always enjoying yourself. Andrew you made life such a joy. It is missed by all. But when we get together as a family we will tell a story about you and it will bring a big smile on every ones face. Love you so much son. Till we are together again keep everyone laughing as you always did here. Love your Dad  EntryNo: 621  Date: Tuesday 22:55 04.09.2013 Jay Andrew, 7 years sound like such a long time. And yet, sometimes it seems like you were just here. Not a day goes by without some reminder of what a special person you were and how fortunate I am to have had you in my life for the short time that it was. I see sparks of you in our own children and I wish that they would have grown up knowing you. Memories of you are as strong today as they were 7 years ago. I miss you and I love you.  EntryNo: 620  Date: Tuesday 22:22 04.09.2013 Heidi Hey Drew, Has it been 7 years already...some days it feels like only yesterday that you were here and then other days the ache takes over and it feels like a lifetime. We talk about you all the time, but of course you probably already know that. You're in the air (it's simply a feeling that I get from time to time) but most certainly in my heart. Having seen over the years the kids who were in class with you grow up and live their lives is bittersweet. It's a reminder of how old you'd be, perhaps what you'd be doing, the places you'd be traveling etc. My life was made better from having you in it. My life was forever changed when you were taken away. My life will be complete when I see you again. I love you to the stars and back. ¢¾ Love always, Heid hnh129juno.com  EntryNo: 619  Date: Tuesday 19:16 04.09.2013 Shannon Andrew I just can not believe that it has been 7 years. You are in our thoughts everyday. Braden still loves the color orange and I know that it reminds him of you. He always tells his little brother about the game he played with you. Carter, who just turned 7 last month, comments about how much he wishes he had a chance to know you. He loves to hear stories about his cousin, especially when we visit with your family and everyone starts sharing their memories. We miss you Andrew and we love you. Love, Shannon, Sean, Braden and Carter Shannondavisepix.net  EntryNo: 618  Date: Tuesday 16:42 04.09.2013 Alyssa Dear Andrew, I came across this song and all I could think of was you. We all miss and love you so very much. Though you are gone physically, your spirit lives on as we share stories about Uncle Andrew with your little nephews, niece, and each other. You are, and forever will be, a part of us, Andrew. Love forever, Alyssa "I remember the last time I saw you Oh, you held your head up proud I laughed inside When I saw how you were standing out in the crowd Your such a part of who I am Now that part will just be void No matter how much I need you now Heaven needed you more Cause heaven was needing a hero Somebody just like you Brave enough to stand up For what you believe And follow it through When I try to make it make sense in my mind The only conclusion I come to Is heaven was needing a hero Like you Yes, Heaven was needing a hero and that's you" -Jo Dee Messina alyssakrieshotmail.com « previous page next page »
