My cousin Andrew was quite the rambunctious child. To this day, I can still hear my aunt Wendy’s voice screaming "Andrew Crawford Barbour get your ass in here!”. He was the life of the party, always getting into trouble but all you could do was laugh when he caused havoc; how could you not love that cute freckle face of his? He was sweet, funny, loving and lovable, sociable, warm and welcoming to all. Yesterday would have been his 25^th birthday. Sadly Andrew, who we always referred to as ‘Droid’, passed away tragically on his fishing boat in 2007. Andrew loved being a fisherman and relished in every moment he spent on the boat with the boys.

Andrew is my little cousin but he very quickly out grew me - one of the things I miss most is when he would scoop me up and give me one of his amazing warm bear hugs...I could hardly breathe but it felt amazing to feel so much love.

Happy 25^th Birthday Droid – we miss you!
