Dear Kathleen and Family,
I was very saddened to hear of the passing of your dear husband, Andrew. Please know how very sorry I am.
May you draw strength from your family, friends, and your strong faith in God. Sending hugs!
Kathleen,
So sad to see Andy’s passing. You and Andy always had a cheerful note in your voice, a smile on your face and a hop in your walk. My holiday party always started when you and Andy came in the door!
I also remember the summer backyard party, Andy reminiscing with Santa Claus Anonymous and Lake Shore Ski Club friends, while you were busy with the food, drinks and chasing the kids around. It was an enjoyable afternoon.
However, there always comes a time for changes. Since I have known you for xx years I think you will be able to carry on with your Children and Grandchildren, other family and of course all your friends.
May your life carry on as cheerful as it was in the past.

To the family of Andrew Creighton,
May you all find peace in the knowledge that Andy was a superior human being in the eyes of his colleagues. His purpose in life was to serve. And that he did so well. He will be missed.
“The purpose of life is not to be happy. It is to be useful, to be honorable, to be compassionate, to have it make some difference that you have lived and lived well.”
– Ralph Waldo Emerson
A good man and friend who I will miss.
