Graveside services will be held on Saturday, October 9, 2010, at 2 p.m. at Kermit Cemetery in Kermit, Texas, officiated by Pastor Steve Long. Arrangements are entrusted to Family Services Funeral Parlor of Kermit.
Andy was born to Arthur "Aus" and Addie Anderson in Wichita Falls, Texas and attended school in Clara, Texas. He served in the United States Air Force during World War II, working in the North American aircraft factory in California prior to enlistment. After the war, he spent 39 years in the employment of Gulf Oil Corporation and Chevron fulfilling his uncle's prophesy, "Sonny boy, if you wear out a pair of shoes in the oil patch, you will never leave".
In 1952, he married Johnnie Elma Liles Anderson and with her three children had an instant family. In 1953 a daughter was added to the family.

When given the responsibility of teaching young boys, he was convicted to give up smoking to be the example they needed.
