Andrew was my friend, I'll always remember stopping by and Andrew was the first one out the door,(wanting ice cream sandwiches) WE would talk family and friends, but our talks always go to Boy Scouting. My son also is 14, so they both started scouting the same time. Ken and I always had things to share and compare. I remember Andrew tell me about being elected to the OA ( a great honor)and Heather being a little worried about that. Then when I went back next trip ,.Everybody laughing about the stories from that weekend.( the ones that he could tell)Andrew having to not talk for a day....HAHAHA...I'll always remember him telling me everytime he got a advancement in scouting and just watching his excitment, and his mom and dad just standing there listening to his story with proud smiles,...Kenny ,Heather, Jason,Alyssa Michael and Megan The church service was very powerful and moving ,I felt great healing that day.Thank you all. Kenny and Heather you have a beatiful family, I know the love your family has for each other will help in healing.It will always be a honor to say Andrew Kries was my friend.. I will always remember him and all the good that he did in his short life,,,God Bless You all and thank you for your friendship,,love Floyd

i didn't really know andrew(like i said last time i wrote), but i met him once or tiwce he prob. doesn't remember. I remember this one time at lunch i was with my friend and he trough a snaple at her and then started to talk to us. That was the begining of our so called friendship. So yeah we really weren't great friends, but from that day on we always said hi to eachother. He was awesome.

I never knew Andrew directly, but I would always hear these wonderful things about him from teachers and students alike. Sometimes, he even used to poke his head into Miss. Devine's classroom during my reading block. It suprises me that someone so promising and completely innocent could be taken at such an early age.
We find ourselves asking: why?
Yet no matter how often we sit and ponder over our thoughts of Andrew's passing, I do not believe it will ever be understood why God took him.
Yet I believe we all can learn from Andrew, for he taught us all a valuable lesson~
A Place For Me
There is a special place in life,
that needs my humble skill,
A certain job I'm meant to do,
which no one else can fulfill
There is a special place in life,
a goal I must attain,
A dream that I must follow,
because I won't be back again.
There is a mark that I must leave,
however small it seems to be,
A legacy of love for those
who follow after me
There is a special place in life,
that only I may share,
A little path that bears my name,
awaiting me somewhere.
There is a hand that I must hold,
a word that I must say,
A smile that I must give
for there are tears to blow away
There is a special place in life
that I was meant to fill
A sunny spot where flowers grow,
upon a windy hill
There's always a tomorrow and the
best is yet to be,
And somewhere in this world,
I know there is a place for me
we love you andrew-- and no matter how much we may grieve over your death, I know that one day i'm going to smile again; Knowing that you are in a better place.

Dear Don, Heather, Kenny, Jason, Mike, Megan, family, and friends of Andrew,
Michelle, the boys & I are praying that “the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost” (John 14:26) will minister to you in this deep time of need. “For we have not an high priest which cannot be touched with the feeling of our infirmities.” (Hebrews 4:15) God knows and feels your pain. In times like this, “Jesus wept.” (John 11:35) Enter His rest and love – “approach the throne of grace with confidence, so that we may receive mercy and find grace to help us in our time of need.” (Hebrews 4:16)
We have no idea what you are feeling. On this side of heaven no one knows exactly why God allowed Andrew’s death and your suffering. But, “we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love Him, who have been called according to His purpose.” (Romans 8:28) We pray the information at http://www.answersingenesis. org/docs2002/death_suffering .asp will give you hope and strengthen your faith by helping put some perspective from the Bible on why good and innocent people suffer and die.
Cling to Jesus! He will carry and comfort you though this valley.
Follow Jesus and He will lead you home to a joyful reunion!
With love,
Dan, Michelle, Nathan, James, Luke, & Benjamin

Oh Andrew, today was such a hard day for me. I didn't even leave the house. I was watching Pretty Woman today and I thought how much we laughed about hooker boots. And the time when we were in Sears, you yelled across the store about hooker boots and the cashier standing right next to you was wearing the exact same boots. I remember being so embarassed but we still couldn't keep from laughing. Then when I bought my own hooker boots you laughed at me so much and made fun of me every time I wore them.
I still can't believe it's true. I know it is but I still listen for you and go to text you numerous times. I am so happy that we were so close. Even when we argued we would tell each other we loved each other at the end of the day. It never failed. No matter how mad we were you would tell me. What I wouldn't give to hear your Peewee Herman laugh that drove me crazy. You have to be one of the most annoying kids I ever met, but you were nothing less than the perfect little brother. You were going to be cool Uncle Andrew. I know you will still be that. I will tell my children about you every chance I get. I will make sure they know what an awesome young man you were and the zest you had for life. You touched more people's lives in your short time than most people in their entire lives. I could go on and on all night about the things you did to annoy me and our little jokes and how close these things made us, but I know you remember all of these things as well. I will always think of you with a smile and know that I am extremely lucky to have had you as my little brother. I love you, Andrew.
Love,
Megan
