Andres's obituary
Andres was an accomplished scholar, Civil Engineer, devout Catholic and classical music aficionado. He emigrated to the United States from La Paz, Bolivia with his immediate family in 1981, sacrificing his culture, language and social status for his children. His intellect, humor, generosity, and devotion to his family will always be remembered.
He leaves behind five adult children and their families:
Son - Carlos Andres and Cynthia Tavel and their three children, Daniel, Sean, and Andrew
Daughter - Patricia and Kendall Broom and their two children: Grandson, Nicholas (daughter, Natalie, great-granddaughter of Andres); Granddaughter, Kristen and David Chisholm (sons David Jr. and Logan, great grand-sons of Andres)
Daughter - Maria and Bill Marsh and their two children, Grandson, Ethan and wife, Brynn and Granddaughter, Allyson
Son - Luis and Heather Tavel
Daughter - Sandra Tavel and her partner, Chirag Patel
He also leaves behind a large community of extended family and lifelong friends in Bolivia, as well as all over the world. Andres was preceded in death by his wife of 39 years, Nancy T. Tavel, who passed away on April 22, 1999.
Services will take place at Mt. Olivet Cemetery, 12801 W. 44th Avenue, Wheat Ridge, CO 80033 on January 11, 2019, two days shy of his 88th birthday.
