Just trying to navigate life, your outlook on life was always so inspirational and i never really understood.  Truly miss having you here Bro!  

Dear family, Please forgive my intrusion on your beloved in this manner. 
If possible, this may reach Keyanna Whincup.  All I want to do is leave a message of intense gratitude and love for Keyanna and her family.
I met K when she was just two months old in the hospital doing bloodwork on this tiny baby. We would run into each other once in a while and she would give me a radiant smile. I loved that little girl.  When she was ten I met the wonderful lady who K was living with. I was so relieved for that bright shining little star. Tears of happiness. 

Now, I am so overjoyed how well her life is. Will never forget her,bless all of you. I needed to express that. Thank you for reading this.
Leonie.

I often think of you.

I love you Brotherand I love your family so dearly... Nad, King and Neo I will be the best of me for them forever. Nadia your love still growing for Kwam is of great inspiration and Kwam you could have not chosen a better wife:))!

My beautiful husband, I hate this.  This is not how it should be.  I still love you more and more each day.  Always gold.

As time goes by I can't help but think of you every day! Never will you be forgotten and forever will I feel your love. Today is your birthday and I can  do one thing and that is honor you in my game tonight here in Iceland.your sister loves you very much.

Yesterday was a very hard day for me... A year has passed and yet it still doesn't seem real.   Looking through projects /emails we did, and always remembering funny things/memories, brings a smile to my face yet it's so bittersweet as then your not here!   Your missed more than words can say!   You truly are a person that will never be forgotten!   Rip Kwame!   I know your looking down on us and guiding us!   An Angel looking down!

Kwame I still cannot believe it is a year today when you were suddenly and tragically taken away from us. Your absence is deeply felt and very painful to speak about. When your name is mentioned we often ask ‘why Kwame' then silence is ensued as the pain is still raw. Time and time again when thinking about you I begin to hope it's a dream but then reality sets in. 
Kwame you had many qualities some of these were your friendliness, good-humoured and easy going which will make any awkward situation seem calmer. This I will hold dear to my heart. 
Kwame you were gone too soon the void you have left behind can never be filled. My dear nephew I say with a very heavy heart ‘Rest in Perfect Peace'.
Aunty Gifty and family, London, UK.

Son it's been 11 months since you suddenly left us. The pain never goes away. I am sorry that I didn't get to tell you that I loved you and goodbye. I miss your sweet smile so much. I love and miss you daily. 
Always loved, never forgotten and forever in my heart. Dad.

Kwame- Kwame- Kwame- everyday I wake up and think about you, Nadia n the boys. Everyday I wish I could call you to talk about auctions, work, trips, life. Everyday my mind gets caught up on how this could happen to our family! Last year this time we were in vegas, just the 4 of us, enjoying ourselves day n and day out. Kwame you will forever be my inspiration in life, forever be my roll model, forever be my best friend and forever be my big bro. Love you so much words can not explain.

Cousin, we are all deeply scared and will never forget the good times you blessed us with. Every day will try to emulate your qualities as a man, husband and father. Never forgotten cousin!!!R.I.P Cuzzo!

Kwame, I think of you every day!  Can't wait for Thomas to be old enough for us to tell him stories about his Dad's best friend. We miss you always xo

Blessings to the Andrews family. I have fond memories from my younger days of Kwame, playing basketball on the courts at Keheewin, or when he would proudly show off his newest addition to his Jetta. While time has distanced us, the memories remain fresh. Rest in power, Kwame.

Kwame, you meant the world to your family and friends.

You filled in all the missing pieces with everybody.

You made an awkward moment seem normal. 

You made a big deal seem small. 

You made everybody get along even when they didn't want to. 

You made a stranger a friend. 

You made your dreams a reality. 

You inspire us to live life, not dream it. 

You made us capture the moment as if would never happen again.

You may not be here physically but you will always in our spirits.

When I see your children, I feel a slight sense of happiness as they are a footprint of your soul. 

May your family and friends find comfort each day to remember the person you were, remember to laugh, to live, to dream, to make time for everything, health, family, friends, work, a phone call etc.

To live in the present. 
To live life with no regrets, 

I think you fulfilled your dreams in your short life; just wish you could have been with us a little longer…

You were true to yourself and others, a rare quality that can't be forgotten. 

You inspire us all to be a better person for ourselves and others. 

RIP, 
Felix, Angela, Felice and Mia.

Not a day goes by that Dad N I Hurt as we miss being with you day in and day out at work! Everything I do reminds me of you and it hurts! A pain I have never felt before! I try and stand strong for all the fam! It's hard! I love you so much!

Days like this are a little harder than most. You are always in my thoughts and you continue to help me grow as a person.A true tribute to the man you are. Miss and love you.

Kwame,since your passing I have been here many,many times each time I leave without posting as the pain is still hurting. Today would have been your 35th birthday and you would've shared it with your family and friends. As I post this message my heart is bleeding. Kwame you are gone but you will never be forgotten. You are at rest now, no pain no suffering. Kwame Rest in Perfect Peace. Until we meet again.

Happy fathers day Kwamez. This is so hard, there is honestly not a day that goes by without me thinking about you in some way. Writing this brings tears to my eyes but I try to take comfort in knowing that you are safe, healthy and still happy now. Love you.

I'm so glad that I was lucky enough to know you Kwame! I still can't believe that you are really gone.  I couldn't have asked for a more amazing brother in law  - you really are the best!  Thank you for all the good times, and for encouraging me to challenge myself.  Your big heart and love of life lives on through your boys.  You made our world a better place and you are dearly missed.

Few people lived and loved life as well as Kwame. Always making everyone smile, laugh, and enjoy the moments in which we live. Hard to describe how much respect I had and still have for such an amazing individual who inspired everyone around him to be better than they are. Miss you Kwame! You are truly an inspiration to all of us who were fortunate enough to know and love you!

Light up the heavens with your smile and rest in peace!

Never forgotten, and always in our hearts. Your spirit will forever live on through your beautiful children and through the infinite lives you touched. My love, thoughts, and prayers go out to your family and friends. May God find them the strength to keep moving forward with the memories of your love fuelling them with every step.

Kwame,
I haven't had a happy moment since you passed that I haven't wished you were experiencing right beside me as you had so many times before. I always respected your intolerance for excuses and your willingness to do what had to be done to get what you wanted. You are leaving an amazing Legacy in Kingston and Neo. I promise to do my best to let them know about the man I knew. The man I loved.

Rest in Peace Brother

Kwame, 
Almost 5 months have gone by since you left us but still hardly a day goes by that I don't think of you. Every single happy momentI have had since, I have thought how even more amazing it would be with you experiencing it right beside me as you had so many times before. I always respected you for your intolerance for excuses and always doing what you had to, to get what you wanted or needed. You are leaving an amazing legacy in Kingston and Neo. I promise to do my best ensure they know the man I knew. The man I loved.

Rest in Peace Brother

Even though I only met Kwame for a short time, it was evident how loving, bright and kind he was.  His happiness and energy were contagious to say the least.  My heart breaks for his family and I truly believe he will always be around watching those he holds dear.

Kwame, you are my Brother, my best friend, and I will never forget you Bro. Us Andrews work so hard for all we have, I promis to help take care of your family no matter what. Backwards Never,Forward for Ever

Edward, Nadia, Sasha and Dorian. May God bless you and your family in this time of sorrow.

im so sorry kwame i never in my wieldest dreams you would go so sudanly

Ed Andrews and family
I am not of the computer generation but the shocking sad news of Kwane's untimely death has caught up with me. This is a terrible shock, it is supposed to be "us old guys" that go first. What a shock this must be for you and for your families. My impression, Ed, was that you had trained Kwane well and he was doing a fine job of running and expanding the company. He was obviously a family man and you all, in my opinion, were a great family. I especially appreciated how he would look after you and me when we got "out of line" at the Roadbuilders annual meeting in Banff. I will miss him and I know that you and your family will miss him dearly. I wish I could help with more than words. My prayers are with all of you. Thinking of you always. Al Reed and Nancy Gall

Sasha and Dorian,  I am very sorry to hear of your loss.  I remember how you spoke so proudly of Kwame and were so excited when he came to the school to see you play.  Please know that I am thinking of you and your family at this difficult time.

Mere words cannot express our sorrow at the passing of such a wonderful young man.  
Our thoughts and prayers are with you all at this difficult time.

Jason and Suzette Panter
