I was an executive at Kobie and greatly enjoyed my time with Drew. He was a terrific guy to work with, open minded and creative. I have to imagine he would be a an especially great husband, son, and father. My condolences to his family. He was just such a good person. Thinking of you all.

Drew was an amazing colleague He did so much for Kobie and the contact center. He never shut any idea down and was amazing at being so kind and gracious. Sending love to his family in their time of grief.

I knew this young man when he was just a tiny boy, and I loved having him at my house whenever his mother needed me to babysit. I'm so sorry for your entire family.

The last time I was with Drew, was on my birthday. He and Bre, Silas and Everett meet me and some friends at Madisons for brunch. He sat on my right hand and we all had a good time. On leaving he held the car door for me, then walked over to his car. All I can remember seeing of him at that point was from the waist down
I called “ I love you Drew!” And he called back “I love you too, Mom”.
I’m so glad we did.

Drew was a great coach and friend to my son Julian. Drew had a great love for soccer and he made the team love the game as much as he did. He brought seriousness and laughter. He always told the boys to go out and have fun. February 24, 2013 we came home champions at Region C Cup U14. Julian to this day has the Brazil Ronaldo Jersey that Drew gave him. Drew and I use to converse about the day he would have kids and he would say he didn't want any. Lol. I said, You don't know what you're missing. Than I found out that Breana was expecting. I smiled and said now you'll know how much love kids can give you. Some time later, I got the opportunity to see him and he'd melt when he talked about his wife and kids. He will truly be missed. Thank you Drew to all awesome memories we have with you.

Drew was always willing to lend a hand to a neighbor, like me, when in need. He hated cold weather and my favorite thing was to holler across the street, “It’s a beautiful, crisp morning, right Drew?!” His comment was typically “Bah! I’m freezing!” 😝. I miss him so much!

Even though I have never met Drew I have known and worked with his mom Sharon for several years. After reading your beautifully written obituary, I can see your mom’s worth ethic, quick wit and sense humor have been passed down to you. I see the resemblance in your smile. Your mom would always brag about her family and how blessed she and your dad are to have Everett and Silas in their lives. You have left behind a loving legacy but you left us way too soon. May you be in the arms of the angels watching over your loved ones. Our sincere condolences in love, Mark and Sue Messina.

My heart aches for everyone who knew Drew. He was always one to laugh with, being sarcastic with, and never hesitated to pick on me (just like a brother would). I will miss bantering with him, he always gave me a run for my money. I am so appreciative of what he did for me at Chris' wedding with my kids - he truly stepped up and helped show them a good time when I was unable to. My three kids shared their fun memories with Drew - letting them drive the boat, taking them to the park, tubing with them. He treated my babies like they were his. He was like that with me when I was younger too - encouraging me to do things that pushed me to the end of my comfort zone, a place I've found to be freeing. I will never forget that.
I love you, Bre, Silas, & Everette - Drew was a good one.
