Andrew (Andy) John Westra
“Be somebody who makes everybody, feel like a somebody”
Andy may have had a short life on earth, but he lived well and loved hard.
Andy was born on November 14, 1990 to a family with 3 older sisters. He was the baby, but was exactly what they needed.
He worked hard and helped others. He was always up for an adventure and made friends along the way. When you met Andy, he made you feel like the only person who mattered.
Amazing, friendly, hardworking, and loving doesn't even begin to express the kind of person that Andy was. He was a friend to so many and was not afraid to make another. He was always willing to lend a helping hand to anyone in need. His passion for motorcycles, hockey, craft beers, his puppies, his wife and family were just the tip of the iceberg. His heart was truly larger than anyone could see from the outside. His presence will forever be missed by so many.
Andy went home to his Lord and Savior Jesus Christ on March 3, 2018.
