He also cherished family gatherings where he will always be remembered as the grill master. He loved the sing-alongs with family members that would always breakout whenever together.

To all the "Upstate" Coyles: Our hearts are broken. There is an emptiness that will always exist. By faith in God, I know that Drew is in a much better place. Free from all pain and suffering. May God give all of you the strength to carry such a heavy burden. My favorite hymn goes "Be not afraid, I go before you always come follow me and I will lead you home."

Karen, Andy ,Jennifer, Christopher, Jamie, Alexis, My heart goes out to all of you...I hope and pray that you all turn to each other for support and joy...Andrew was a great kid..I had the pleasure of meeting the whole family through all our kids going to Morris School. Andrew was a good friend of my son Jeremy and daughter Jessica. You all are in my heart and just remember all the great times you all had and how much he touched others in their lives.. The smiles he put on everyones faces. I believe God only takes the best and we will never understand why because we are selfish and want them for ourselves. Take Care all of you and God Bless...With much Love.

So very sorry for your loss. Thinking of you all at this sad time. May you find comfort in the wonderful memories of an extraordinary life lived.
Revelation 14:13 And I heard a voice from heaven saying, “Write this: Blessed are the dead who die in the Lord from now on.”
“Blessed indeed,” says the Spirit, “that they may rest from their labors, for their deeds follow them!”
