John 5:28,29; Ps 37:29 Ron Smith Dear Mike, Jeff and Chrissy, I was shocked and deeply saddened to read of your mom's passing today in the paper. I don't even know if you guys remember me, but I worked at the Y with her back in the day (the early 90's). Cherish all of the memories, and know that your mom was the greatest, and always had a smile on her face when she talked about you. My thoughts and prayers are with all of you and your entire family. We had so much fun at the Y, and I will miss her very much, even though I probably only saw her a couple of times since I left there. With deepest sympathy, Julie My daughters were students at St. Mary's from 2006-2010. Mrs. Andrews was my daughter Kaedyn's pre-k teacher. We fondly remember Kaedyn's experience with Mrs. A. Kaedyn excelled in her classroom and ALWAYS felt valuable and loved!! Mrs. Andrews will be sorely missed. God bless you all. Judie Murphy
