Andrew was born August 8, 1987 in Waco to Phil and Cindy Jahn. Andrew was a member of First United Methodist Church and was confirmed in 2000. He graduated high school in 2006 and had attended college at both TSTC and MCC.

Living with Andrew meant living with a rabbit in the backyard, two turtles in the bath tub, hamsters, fish and cats. He was a loving and loyal son, grandson, brother, cousin and friend. His smile and hugs will be greatly missed. No matter what was going on he always let people know he loved them.

Our hearts are breaking, but we are glad he will suffer no more from the pain and struggles of this life. He is in the arms of Jesus and we will join him there one day.

Andrew was preceded in death by his grandparents, Phil and Lillie Thomas; great grandmother, Bea Ashcraft; and aunt, Karen Villers.

Survivors include his parents, Phil and Cindy Jahn; brother, Matthew Jahn and Tammara Cook; grandparents, Stanley and Norma Jahn; his love, Kamee Nelson; Uncles and Aunts, James Thomas, Todd and Rhonda Thomas, Tim and Lisa Jahn, DD and Brian Burt; and cousins, Casey Villers and Jared Hoag, Jamie and Juan Salazar, Randi and Heather Thomas, Jazzi Thomas, Sarah Thomas, Donny Renfrow, Missy Renfrow, Dusty Renfrow, Chandler Jahn and Brandon Jahn.

Pallbearers will be Matthew Jahn, Tim Jahn, James Thomas, Todd Thomas, Brian Burt and James Smith.
