My deepest condolences for your loss. Andi was a fantastic leader, one of and non- judge mental person I’ve ever met. Her ability to connect with people to push their limits and expose their vulnerabilities was exceptional. She touched my life as she did countless others. The legacy she leaves is one to be very proud of. May your memories of happier times bring you comfort during your time of grief.

Keith and David, I am so sad to hear that your Mom has left us. She will never leave my heart, like so many other people who were blessed to have known her, Andi made a tremendous difference in my life. I am a better person for having known Andi. She picked the perfect name for her company, Challenge You. Andi was always challenging me to be authentic and live a life with positive purpose. She introduced me to the World Works program, not an experience I enjoyed (and neither did she!) but it helped us both get over some issues in our lives. I hired Andi several times while working at Palomar College to help my team. Also hired you Keith and loved having you on our team! Andi and I would have dinner together fairly often back in those days, she always inspired me. She was an excellent listener, offered great advice along with her friendship. You all are in my thoughts for God’s healing comfort. Much love, Teri
