Uncle Earl and I shared many common intrest.Dogs, horses, hunting,especially dogs.Earl was an uncle and a friend and I will miss him.Earl "knew more about dogs than dogs know about dogs"
Dana I am so sorry to hear of your Dad's passing. You are in my thoughts and prayers.
A loss that is too difficult for words to explain.

Sorry to hear that Earl passed away. Our thoughts and prayers are with all the family.I am Waylon Andrews youngest son. We live in Evansville, Indiana.
We are indeed saddened by your loss.we didn't know him well, but my uncle Buel Andrews was his brother and if he was anything like him he was a wonderful man. May your hearts be comforted by the hands of our lord jesus christ.
This marks the passing of one of the best fishing buddy's any man could ever hope to find.Many, many hours of pure pleasure exploring and fishing the rivers, water-ways, Sloughs, Creeks and Lakes of north-east Texas.Buzz, as I knew him, will sorely be missed. He was truly one-of-a-kind.
"This third candle we light in your memory.For the times we laughed,The times we cried,The times we were angry with each other,The silly things you did,The caring and joy you gave us."
Times and things keep changing nothing ever stays the same but a mans got to take the bad with the good and live with his memories and dreams.
"This second candle represents our courage.To confront our sorrow,To comfort each other,To change our lives."
In memory of my wonderful and unique Uncle Buzz. I will never forget his laugh, humor, and wonderful tall tales. He was truly a person of his own and a freethinker. I love you and will miss you Uncle Buzz.Niece of Earl Andrews and daughter of Luetha Andrews Marshall.I light these four candles in memory of Uncle Buzz:"The first candle represents our grief.The pain of losing you is intense.It reminds us of the depth of our love for you."
"This fourth candle we light for our love.We light this candle that your light will always shine.As we enter this holiday season and share this night of remembrancewith our family and friends.We cherish the special place in our heartsthat will always be reserved for you.We thank you for the gift your living brought to each of us.We love you.We remember you."
Uncle Buzz was truly one of a kind. Never a dull moment in is daily life. He had a broad range of interests and hobbies from music to you name it. We will miss a unforgetable old war veteran. Rest in peace Uncle Buzz.Love, Mike
