It is with deep sorrow that the family of Andrew Haviland announces his passing on September 2, 2024, at the age of 40, after a courageous daily battle with Type 1 Diabetes, which he faced since the age of 12.
Born on October 11, 1983, to Mike and Patty, Andy grew up alongside his sister Dianna, creating a childhood rich with memories and laughter. He inherited his father’s passion for fixing things, which led him to pursue a career as a diesel mechanic after graduating from Bates Technical College. His remarkable ability to repair nearly anything was a source of pride for him and a valuable skill to many.
Andy had a zest for life that shone through in his love for fishing,
biking, and visiting neighbors. One of his greatest joys was spending time with his grandmother, who lived just across the street. His affection extended to his beloved pet donkey and the family dogs, who brought him endless happiness. He shared strong bonds with his aunts, uncles, and cousins, creating a close-knit family dynamic.
As a loving father to his two daughters, Zivah and Bobbie, Andy’s greatest pride was in watching them grow into kind, polite individuals. His love for them knew no bounds, and he cherished every moment spent in their company.
Andrew is survived by his daughters, Zivah and Barbara; his father
Michael (Jane); his mother Patricia (David); his sister Dianna; his niece Baylee and nephew James; his grandmother Norma; along with
numerous aunts, uncles, and cousins who will miss him dearly.
In celebration of Andy’s life, a remembrance gathering will be held on November 10th at 1 PM at the Eatonville Eagles. The family invites all who knew him to come share their memories and honor the impact he had on our lives.
