Andy, our good friend and cousin… going to miss you buddy!
We enjoyed his company and have lots of good memories about our times spent together.
Pizza suppers at our house, always included lots of laughing and joking :-)
So glad we were not only cousins, but close friends.

My sincere condolences to Lynn, Mike and family!! I know it is difficult to loose someone dear to us at this time of year. Andy will surely be missed by all of you. He was a great man, husband and father. RIP Andy

My daughter and I had the great fortune to first meet Andy about 8 years ago. He was a lovely neighbour and I always enjoyed running into him and stopping for a chat. He was always so sweet to us and he had wanted to take us for ice cream at his favourite spot but it never happened - COVID, illness, work schedule and other responsibilities always got in the way.
My dad was born the same year as Andy, and we just lost him two months ago. I truly know the sadness and loss you feel and I am sending my deepest condolences to the whole family. He mentioned you all often and loved you very much. We will miss him.

I miss you so much Dad. I know that you are now so lovingly wrapped in Mom’s arms and that warms my heart. It’s not goodbye just see you later. Love you ???

Chère famille Charette, nos sincères sympathies suite au décès de votre père, notre cousin Dédé. Nous sommes certains que toute la ‘gang’ des Charette de la base ville d’Ottawa, rue Cumberland et Cathcart, sont autours de la table, comme chez mémère Charette, pour le Jour de l’An.
Dear extended Charette family, our sincere sympathies on the recent death of your father, our cousin Dédé. We are certain that the Charette clan is playing cards and having their drinks of choice. Thanks for the memories!!!

André, Un grand papa que j’ai rencontré il y a plusieurs années dans les arénas ! Un individu tellement sympathique et de toute gentillesse. Repose en paix sans souffrance.

I’m so sorry to hear this news. He was a lovely man who was so sweet to Katie when he’d see her at the arenas. I hope he knew how happy that made her. My sincere, heartfelt condolences to all of his family, and all who knew him.
I knew Andy since 1978. He is the godfather to one of my children, and a dear friend to my entire family. He will be missed but not forgotten. RIP my dear friend.
