December 30, 1929 - October 5, 2024
Andy has left his Earthly home to be with his Lord and saviour.
Finally reunited with his wife Peggy and his children Andrea and Anders R. "Little Andy". Born in Denmark to the late Rasmus and Thora Pedersen. Loving "Gramps" of Kianna and Tyson (Samantha). Special Papa and step-father to many.
Born in Demark and at the age of 19 decided he was going to explore the world while working as a farmer to pay his way. He spent a year and a half in Iceland before landing in Canada and moving around Northern and Southern Ontario before landing in Sault Ste. Marie where he made his home.
Andy had a long time connection to the Lion's Club of Sault Ste. Marie where he volunteered countless hours and acted as President on more than one occasion. He volunteered his time cooking for St. Vincent's and also did a lot of work for Westminster Presbyterian Church. He will be fondly remembered for his giving personality and would always be willing and able to help anyone in need.
The family would like to extend a special thank you to all the staff at A.R.C.H. for their wonderful care and compassion. We would also like to thank the staff on 2A at the Sault Area Hospital especially Dr. J.
