I met Andrea while working for Starbucks.
I think it was 2012.
She hugged me so well!
She hugged everyone that well!
We made instant connections.
We had a few similar experiences in life.
We realized Andrew (Andrea’s son) and my daughter Kiona were born one day apart. So, we were in the hospital at the same time!
Our dads were about the same age too!
Also, we both lost our dear mother’s in our early 30’s.
I love ❤️ her. One of my favorite things about Andrea was her laugh! You could hear it all throughout the store and it made you laugh too! She laughed with her whole self. It was contagious that laughter. But my another favorite part of Andrea was she was herself in any situation she was in and didn’t ever feel like she had to make others comfortable either. I never have been able to do that in life and don’t know if I ever will but I would love to be just like her in that way! I looked up to her for that! we went to the movies together, we both shared our love for faith films. My most favorite thing about Andrea though was that she knew Jesus as her personal savior. That means I get to see her again! Plus, she’s having a way better time than us right now! God knows she’s deserves it. Hardworking, kind, compassionate and loving are only a few worlds to describe my best friend I had in the whole wide world besides my own momma and of course, Jesus The Christ. May she rest in His glory forever Amen 🙏
