Brian Patrick Andrews, born on April 20, 1955, in Mt. Carmel, Illinois, passed away on May 8, 2025, in Vincennes, Indiana. Brian left this world, leaving behind a legacy of kindness, warm-heartedness, and laughter that echoed through the lives of all who knew him.
After graduating from Lincoln High School in 1973 and obtaining an Associate’s Degree, Brian entered the workforce, where his friendly demeanor and honest work ethic shone. He spent many fulfilling years employed in retail at esteemed establishments such as Raben Tire, Memering Motorplex, and Wilson Motors. Brian married the love of his life, Jeannie “Street” Andrews, creating an unbreakable bond on December 31, 1986, in Vincennes, Indiana.
Brian was a man of many joys—golf courses knew his stride, fishing lines knew his touch, and football games knew his cheers. His sense of humor was a gift he generously shared, ensuring laughter was never in short supply. To describe Brian as kind, friendly, and funny is to capture just the surface of his profound impact on those around him.
His departure is deeply felt by his adoring family. Left to cherish his memory are his beloved wife, Jeannie “Street” Andrews; his step-son, Brad Sullivan of Indianapolis, IN; his siblings, Raymond Andrews (Beverly) of Pittsboro, NC, Dan Andrews (Teresa) of Somerset, KY, Jeff Andrews of Indianapolis, IN, and Linda Andrews of Terre Haute, IN; and a host of treasured nieces and nephews. Preceding him in death were his parents, Benjamin and Aida Jane “Dugan” Andrews, and his brothers, Michael Andrews, Mark Andrews, and Richard Andrews.
In every smile shared, every kind word spoken, and every moment of joy, Brian’s spirit will live on. He will be profoundly missed and eternally remembered.
There will be a private memorial held at a later date. Memorial donations may be made to the Vincennes Pet Port. Fond memories and online condolences may be made at www.fredrickandson.com.
