Andrew was a kind young man who fought for what he believed in. Described as a 'good kid' by his parents, he showed a good heart as a Marine volunteering to go to Iraq to do what he could to prevent another 9/11 attack from happening here at home. His compassion and caring did not go unnoticed. More than 2,000 people lined the streets of Akron, Ohio to say goodbye to Andrew. A stickler for education with plans to go on to college, Andrew's goals will now live on through those who receive the scholarship in his name.
