My sincere condolences to the family and friends, so sorry for your loss. Please find comfort in knowing that Jehovah God will soon resurrect our dear loved ones (John 5:28-29). Oh how we long for the day when pain, suffering and death will be no more, these former things will have passed away (Revelation 21:3-5).

Dearest Andrews' Family, My deepest heartfelt sympathy over the death of your beloved husband, dad, father-in-law and grandpa. What a great, warm, friendly, down-to-earth, approachable guy! Loved his quick smile and quick laugh. Used to love going in to "the elevator" and enjoying a quick chat with the gang - John, Dick, Buck, Don & Eris. Enjoyed the grain cart of candy on John's desk - fruit-flavored tootsie rolls were my favorite. I "lit" a green candle for John since the grain of crops were his livelihood. Sad, yet fitting, John was called Home between wheat harvest and corn harvest. John was the heartbeat of harvest in Yuma County. And his name will always be one and the same with "Yuma County Grain." He always had a twinkle in his eye. I remember his white pick-up with its white camper. Love the picture you chose for this on-line obituary. I can only imagine how heartbreaking it is to say farewell to your patriarch, but what a fine lasting legacy he and his beautiful ageless bride left in you four upstanding sons! "John Joseph Andrews" - a solid name and a solid individual. The heartbeat of harvest in Yuma County. It was a privilege and an honor to know you, John. I know you will have a standing-room-only overflowing funeral. A testimony to how well loved and how well respected you are and will remain. From one who will remember you fondly, thank you. June, Steve, Barb, Kelby, Ariel & husband, Bill, Jim, Angela, Lucas, Layne, Bob, you've been in my prayers and you will remain in my prayers. My sincere condolences, Joni

Thoughts and prayers to John's family. I have many fond memories of fishing with John when I was growing up as his neighbor south of Yuma.
