Anthony Tyrone Pearson Andrews was born on August 4, 1981, to Lucy Pearson Andrews and Williams Andrews in Miami, Florida. He was the baby boy out of eight children. He received his education in the Dade County public schools. He worked many years as a printer at Eastern Shore Printing and Woven Label Company.

 

In November of 2001, Anthony and Shanika became one and God blessed them with four beautiful girls. Anthony was full of joy and happiness. He was the life of the party. He was very kindhearted and affectionate. He loved helping others and was never afraid to speak his mind. He was respected and loved by everyone. He touched many lives. On August 6, 2024, God sent two angels, his father, William, and brother, William Jr., to his bedside, and they whispered to him, “You have completed your race. Your work is done, lay down your burden, and rest with us.” Anthony accepted the will of God and told the angels, “Low down thy chariot and let me ride.”

 

Anthony was preceded in death by his father, William Sr.; brother, William Jr.; grandparents, Dan and Lorine Andrews and Mack and Maebell Pearson; brother-in-law, Torrey; mother-in-law, Vanessa Thomas; and father-in-law, Kelvin Strong.
