A memorial celebration for Andy Royer

Andy’s was a life which certainly deserves celebrating. He embraced it, he lived it, he loved to share it. We were all a part of Andy’s life and he let each of us know just what an important place we had in it. He will continue to be part of our lives and I know that we are all better people for having known him; even if you only met Andy briefly he managed to alter your path to some degree. Even when he learned his time with us would be cut far shorter than anyone would have dreamed, Andy refused to give up, refused to let the bastard cancer beat him down, and continued to find joy, love and laughter in whatever he strove to accomplish.

Please join us in celebrating this beautiful life.

Sunday, 27 September
3:00 in the afternoon until sundown

At the home of Andy& Candise on Vashon* 17809 Mclean Rd SW Vashon Wa 98070
We will share thoughts, memories, readings and prayers at 5:00
Bonfire at 6:00
If it is convenient, please bring a dish to share, as well as beverages to your taste (or to Andy’s taste!) and a lawn chair or two.

In the last few hours of his life, Andy’s wife Candise sat in meditation by his bedside. She saw a beautiful green light wash over every cell of his body, bringing him peace. Green is the color of the heart chakra. His family would like to invite you to wear something green to the celebration as a symbolic reference to Andy being filled with peace as he left his body and this earth behind.

If you are unable to join us, please light a fire or a candle and send Andy a wish, a thought, a prayer, or something you didn’t have a chance to tell him; write it on a slip of paper and send it along on the smoke …

Donations to his wife and daughters can be sent to PayPal via [email protected] or to Hattie’s Hat Fund at US Bank on Vashon.
