My Buddy

Lisa was born July 30, 1969 and Andy was born January 14, 1971. They were only 15 months apart in age. They grew up in the country next to Grampa and Uncle George's farm. They were always together as there were only a few other kids around. As they got older they became closer friends, more like buddies, than brother and sister. When the boys came along, he couldn't have been happier. He bought them everything a little boy could want. He would take the boys shopping, would babysit and take them for rides on the tractors and down to the barn to visit the cows. He just loved them so much.

 Andy's way of giving Marty a nap, take a few spins around the field, and he's out like a light.

Jack Andrew, Rian Joseph, Lisa, and Martin John getting ready to take a spin on Papa's lawnmower. What a joy they all are to us. Rian looks and acts much like Andy did when he was a little boy. Always on the move, and in high gear.

    Andy never did anything the conventional way,                     Andy's First Christmas
    including feeding Marty.
