Andrew was a student of mine in the second semester of Organic Chemistry at the University of Missouri. He was always very engaged in the material and quite interested in becoming a doctor. I recall that semester is when he injured his arm in a car accident. That didn’t stop him though! He worked diligently to keep up in his studies. I only saw the account of his life today; otherwise, I would have come to tell you these wonderful things about your son in person. I am so deeply sorry that you no longer have Andrew with you.

Andrew and I met when he was my lab partner for Animal Physiology at Mizzou. We spent hours studying together for that class and the next semester decided to study for the MCAT together. Every Tuesday and Thursday I went over to his house to stream our online class. He almost always had a cup of coffee waiting for me. Andrew was one of the kindest most giving friends I have ever had. He always encouraged me and listened to me. I never had any doubts that he was going to be one amazing doctor. Andrew really loved his family. He talked about how much his parents gave to him and meant to him. He was really proud of his little brother. I asked Andrew to volunteer for Special Olympics with me. Andrew really threw himself into that service. I think after just the very first practice, I came to the second one a bit earlier than him and all the athletes started asking "Where's Andrew? Is Andrew coming?". One girl, Jamie, started calling him her big brother. Andrew had a smile that could light up the room. I will never watch Game of Thrones or Star Wars and not think of him. The last time I spoke to Andrew he gave me so much encouragement about being a doctor. Andrew gave so much to all of us. I am so happy that I got to have the blessing of being Andrew's friend. My prayers are with his family and his many friends. 

Every now and then you “get” to share a season of life with someone special.   Andrew was friends with my oldest son during youth football at Bixby.  I got to coach Drew and got to know Nick and Polly.  We all did life together on and off the field.  Drew was one of those rare “old souls” who just loved life and loved people.  A smile so infectious and big it filled any room he entered.  May God guide him home and peace be with Nick, Polly and Alex...🙏🏻❤️

Andrew served beautifully as a mentor to young boys at Tulsa Hills Youth Ranch.  He  not only had fun with them, but also brought joy and hope to them and made them feel loved and accepted.  I am so thankful to have known him.  He was a gift to the ranch and to the children he served.  We lost a very special young man.  Praying for peace for the family.

It is very difficult for a teacher who losses his/her student.  As Andrew entered in eternal life,  I offer my heartfelt condolence to his family.

My sweet cousin, my family and I will miss you greatly!! The memories my kids have of spending time with you and my sweet Aunt Polly, Uncle Nick & Wrizzy are unforgettable.  You loved my kids and you loved your pets.  Dogs & kids are good trust of character.   You never met a kiddo or animal that didn’t love you.       Rest In Peace my friend & My cousin.

While I didn’t know Andrew very long, he made a lasting impression in my life. He was caring, fun, and could always put a smile on your face. My heart, prayers, and thoughts go out to the family. 

AJ, oh where do I start you joined our baseball team A's. You had that charming can do attitude do for Coach Tom.  Daryl and yourself in the outfield boy nothing got past the 2 of you. You left us way to soon. We love you AJ.

I don’t know Andrew very well but we are friends with his parents.  He came to the rescue of all of his moms friends  one night at our neighborhood  bar by making the obnoxious man dance with him and not  leaving him alone so the man would learn his lesson.  I laughed so hard and instantly thought he was the funniest sweetest kid.  And I will always remember how his eyes lit up every time he hugged his mom!!  I am praying and thinking of all his family and friends.   All my love dawn 

There isn’t a HS memory that doesn’t involve Andrew and his laughter— from prom to the lake. My heart aches that the world lost such a wonderful soul and an amazing person. Rest easy my friend, you will be missed dearly.  

I wasn’t exactly a close friend, but I didn’t need to be to know what kind of person Andrew was. I’d never seen him without a smile on his face and he exuded such happiness and optimism. It’s incredibly disheartening to have such a young life end so soon. Sending love and prayers to all of his friends and family. Andrew will be missed and his good spirits will be carried on by those that had the privilege to know him. 

Andrew was a great friend and person. He always had a smile on his face and kept a positive attitude. I will never forget skiing with him down the mountain Breckenridge and having a great time. Sending prayers to his friends and family. 

An amazing friend and brother. Always knew how to find humor in the toughest situations and brighten anyone’s day. I know his impact will continue to live on. He will surely be missed and never forgotten. 

Andrew was a great friend and a great person all around.  He will be greatly missed by many. Sending prayers to family and friends.
