Andy…So very sorry to learn of the news  and for the loss of your son. 

He sounded like a wonderful person.!! May he Rest In Peace!!

Peace and love to you and all your family!!

We had the opportunity of having Andrew work on our team at our local property maintenance business. We liked him from the beginning. I never had an employee I invited in for dinner, sat at our fire pit having long chats or had even met us at church. Always got the job done, no complaints, and customers always told us how nice and respectful he was. Strong as a bull, he'd often give his old out of shape "boss" nutrition and workout advice, lol. My kids would welcome him up the driveway and he spoke of how one day he wanted kids. Gonna miss the kid, he left an imprint on my family and me. I needed those talks as much as he did😏. Rest easy brother, we'll miss you. 
So sorry for your loss! AJ was a sweet young man who obviously struggled for a long time. Unfortunately, our family can relate to your loss. Wishing you peace during this difficult time. Much love from the Loeffel family.

When I moved here 25 years ago Lisa and Andrew were one of the first people I met. We became very close as we had so much in common. Our children were around the same age and Lisa and I worked in the same field. Several years later I lost my husband. Lisa and Andrew couldn’t do enough for me and my children. 

AJ and my son Martin both collected baseball cards. Shortly, following my husbands passing I picked AJ up for CCD with Martin in my car. As AJ was getting into the car I could see that his pockets were bursting with baseball cards. He could hardly sit down. AJ proceeded to take the cards from his pocket and handed them to Martin and said, “These are for you. I hope this cheers you up a little.”  That’s when AJ pierced my heart. He recognized that Martin was mourning. That’s the AJ that I came to know. He was caring, loving and giving. I watched him grow up since 1st grade since I was working in the school. You are missed and may you rest in Peace. 🙏

I rememberAJ from  my days at summer recreation. Vibrant, energetic and full of life. He loved when Dad came to cook for everyone at the end of the summer. My sincere condolences.
To the Graffia family. My wife and I want to send our heartfelt condolences. We didn’t know Andrew long or very well, but in our brief interactions with him this spring and summer he presented himself as a fine young man. Please accept our deepest sympathies. 
I’m so deeply sorry for the family’s loss. Rest in Peace AJ.
We daughters and I moved to College Park in 1995. My youngest Melina was in grade 5, her friends would come over and soon our home was the place to hang as they grew into their teens. She and her friends hung out with AJ as one the guys in their crew along with Codie. They would go to AJ’s or walk the neighborhood as teens and I would hear stories of fun and some mischief. AJ was sweet, shy and always respectful to Melina and to me as her Mama. He was kind, friendly and had bright eyes and smile. I remember AJ well and as the years passed I began seeing him at IXL, working out and getting strong, he would shyly smile and say a hello.  I knew he faced challenges, like so many kids I’ve known as my daughters friends, and I prayed for his wellness and strength to make it through his life. He was making his way onward in his life and clearly was really trying. It breaks my heart to see another young beautiful life lost- especially when you see he was trying to improve his life and for others. I’m heart broken for his family and close friends. Senseless loss and hurt. I know heaven has gained a beautiful spirit and AJ’s life was full of purpose and example as he fought to survive and prosper. Much love and may AJ rest in power. My family and I will remember him with fondness. Love- Ali and family of Melina 
All my love to the family. Aj was such a great guy, reminiscing on late nights at the Graffia House with Elyse and AJ will always make me smile and remembering talks with him will always remind me he really genuinely cared about other people. I'm so sorry for your loss.

Andrew, and Lisette

Michael and I are very sorry for your loss. Your family are all in our thoughts and prayers at this difficult time. 

Love Your Cousin,
