Andrew Armstead Services and Calling Hours February 23, 2019 04:38PM
Please keep Andrew's wife, son, family, friends Charles & Tonya and all the people that were close to him in your prayers. Sad and tragic don't begin to describe his passing. I've been struggling with what to write and how to address this for the past few days since hearing the news of his death. Our pulling community is a pretty tight knit group, we're our own family of sorts, and it's been a rough few weeks with some tragic losses. It's easy to forget that; the handshake, the conversation, the laughter we have with someone might never happen again. Cherish the memories you have with the people around you. Cherish the gift of friendship and the people God puts in our path.

When it came to our favorite motorsport of choice, Andrew was first and foremost a fan of pulling. It was a passion that lead him to announcing, taking turns in the seat, wrenching, podcasting, and helping where ever he could. He had a true passion for this motorsport. Andrew and his passion will truly be missed.

I pray that Andrew's family and friends find strength and peace in these coming days and weeks.

Side Note: We are no longer accepting PayPal donations. They have changed their terms of service and stated they would fine PayPal users for spreading "misinformation" and "hate, violence, racial or other forms of intolerance that is discriminatory". PayPal did not provide definitions for some of these vague terms. Woke corporate policies regarding "misinformation" could result in an automatic fine of $2,500 which would have been removed directly from the customer’s PayPal account. PayPal did backdown from some of their policies but quietly implemented portions of them in later terms of service. A financial institute has no right to monitor social media accounts or speech. This is unacceptable and I'll no longer do business with PayPal.

This isn't the time, but there will be very soon.

All I'll say right now is next time you ask someone how they are, double down, mean it, and tell them you care. Drew certainly knew we did and were there. Be ready to catch someone when they fall. I tried, I missed, the runner got home...

May the Loving arms of Christ, hold and comfort Stephanie, Andrew Jr. and Adrew's entire family and friends, during this difficult time they are going through. We will continue to lift you all up in our prayers. Know that Jesus loves you, He cares about what you're walking through, every single thing. And He hasn't left you, not ever. Praying that you'll have a fresh glimpse of His Presence as He's bringing you through, to the other side of the grief that you are experiencing.

Isaiah 41:10 So do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you; I will uphold you with my righteous right hand.

Psalm 34:17 When the righteous cry for help, the Lord hears, and rescues them from all their troubles.
