By Robert A. Waters Funeral Home | Posted in: Robert A. Waters Funeral Home
Andre was born a special needs child and the doctors said he would not live beyond three years. But God saw differently; we were blessed to have him in our lives for 43 years.
Andre had a love for all people. He attended church and was especially fond of praise & worship. He loved going to his day program where he enjoyed working with his hands; but not so much in the last six months.
Andre was an organ donor and at least five recipients will be blessed because of his unselfish Act of Love.
