Kelly & Andre’s entire family,
Please let me express my deepest sympathies. I was blessed to work with Andre for many years, and it is with a heavy heart that I share this memory of Andre.
Andre certainly was a thought-leader and innovator, and I enjoyed collaborating with him as team members at KeyBank.
Andre’s memorial obituary brought to mind vivid memories of Andre’s strong faith, his formidable debating skills, and his gift for spirited conversations.
I am grateful I knew him, and saddened by his loss.
Go in Peace, Go with God, Andre.

There is nothing we can do or say
to make the pain go away
But God in His infinite wisdom still
upholds us by His powerful will
And after enduring we will one day say
Thank you God for moving dark clouds away
