Preceded in death by his sister Candice Renea Carpenter and his grandfather James A Roubidoux. Andrew was born January 15, 1988 in Liberal, Kansas to Mary K Roubidoux of Shawnee, OK. Andrew worked hard to provide for his family and he had a natural talent for fixing just about anything that came his way. He was a mechanic by trade but, he also loved and felt a sense of pride in being able to repair cars. By the age of 30, Andrew became a first time home owner but, more importantly, he was able to provide a real, safe and loving environment for his family. Andrew was proud of his family and its heritage. He was a member of the Sac and Fox Nation and looked forward to attending the annual Pow Wow. Andrew will be remembered for his love of music, especially the oldies, camping, family cookouts, laughing with his friends. But, most of all he will be remembered for being the best big brother, the greatest dad to his girls, Sienna and Rayleigh. Although his passing has left a void that can never be filled, his family finds comfort that he will be greeted with open arms by his sister Candice and slobbery kisses from his Pitbull Baby.
