Andrea Strecker

Andrea Strecker has faced some of life’s most challenging obstacles as a mother, daughter, sister, friend and US Navy Veteran. Through these obstacles she held tightly to GOD, as He kept her every step of the way. All within six months, she lost one of her older brothers, two months later her Father, and four months later her 16 year old son, Anthony, Jr. The author stands firm in her faith and the belief that GOD makes no mistakes and is pressing on to the High Calling!

TO MY SON ANDRAE

SO MUCH HAS CHANGED IN THE BLINK OF ANY EYE;

JUST WANTED TO REMIND YOU, YOU’RE STILL MY FAVORITE GUY.

I AM PROUD OF WHO YOU ARE BECOMING;

I CAN ONLY IMAGINE WHAT IS NEXT, I KNOW

YOU WILL HIT THE GROUND RUNNING.
