Dear sweet Andi, “ your life was a blessing, your memory a treasure. You are loved beyond words and missed beyond measure.” Please take care of our loved ones in heaven and watch over your loved ones here on earth waiting someday to join you. Rest In Peace. Love you, Pam Sonnen
I love you, Mommy. I listened to my voicemails from you – and hearing your voice made me feel like you are still here, just around the corner…excited to see your only Grandbaby, our little man Tristan. Thank you for loving me, and then loving him, the way that you did. Although I am an adult, you are my mommy and I am not ready to say goodbye, but like you always told me: “Put your big girl pants on, Sara, and keep your head held high”. Our time together was cut too short, but wow, just wow – I don’t think I could have had a better woman to look up to. Your perfect, genuine smile..your infectious laugh, your ability to mend my pain with a few simple words…your impeccable wardrobe. You never looked anything less than perfect and I could never figure out how you always were so put together at ALL TIMES – but I try to make you proud and I will continue doing so. I love you so, so so much. Thank you for being my mom and loving me despite my flaws. The one person who would see the best in me even at my worst. I wish I could say goodbye, but I know that YOU knew how much I loved you, how much we all loved & love you. I hope your beautiful soul can rest in the sweetest peace :pray::skin-tone-3::blue_heart::broken_heart::heart: I promise you, Mom, that I will not let this break me. You would have wanted nothing but happiness around Tristan and for that I will do anything. “Love you, mean it!” -Sara, or as you called me, “Sare-gee” :heart:

Jeff, Cary and family of Andrea (Bartel) Stanley, although the last time we were together (in 2016) it was not under the best circumstances. Still, it was a delight to reconnect with my nieces and nephew. Sending prayers, love and sympathy to you all.

I remember Andrea has always cheerful and as a loving mother. Our sons Zach and Travis were childhood friends and she welcomed Travis into her household as another son. My memories of her loving spirit warm in family memories.
I will always remember Andrea’s smile, and the way she lit up a room when she walked in. Her outer and inner beauty is reflected in the loving family she has raised and was raised within. A beautiful soul.
