Memorials

Oh Andrea Im so sad you left us at such a very young age. The things we used to... I remember when your mom made us two alike shawls. Taking your moms double bike for two. We smashed that bike up on a fire hydrant and I skinned my whole shin. At one time in our life when we were young we were together all the time. I know the Lord has you in his beautiful kingdom lighting the way with his perpetual light. We will all meet again one day my friend. I know your out there doing what you love doing.I will always love the bright and bubbly person you were. God Bless You Andrea.All my Love.... Sue Fox Fawcett. Cleethorpes England UK
