From a very young age, Andrea was the ultimate protector, always looking out for others and taking care of her family and friends. She always took great pride in helping others and was an amazing daughter, sister, friend and caregiver.

To her family, Andrea was known as the ‘butterfly’ – fluttering from one adventure to the next. She traveled the world enjoying all that life had to offer and devoted her life to caring for others, as a nurse. Her sweet voice, gentle caress and exuberant spirit resonated inside and out and her energy and zest for life was contagious to all that had the pleasure to know her.

Andrea enjoyed all that life had to offer and inspired others to do the same. When she wasn’t out catching butterflies or climbing trees as child or caring for her doggie, Romeo…she was dancing all night, hosting friends at her condo or making you laugh or smile…that sweetness and want to take your worry, hurt or sadness away is what Andrea truly enjoyed and what others loved so dearly about her. Andrea was generous in love, life and laughter to anyone that was blessed by her presence.

“Laugh out Loud” was always Andrea’s motto… and “Live out Loud” was how Andrea lived her life to the fullest. Today we carry on her legacy of love, life and laughter to pay tribute to our dearest friend, loving sister and wonderful daughter.
