A celebration in heaven was held on Wednesday, October 18, 2023, when Andrew Dale Marris’ long, hard fight with liver failure/cancer ended. Andrew was a beloved son, brother, fiancé and friend to many. He was hardworking, intelligent, courageous and strong! Andrew was an inspiration to all who knew him!
