Andy was a beloved community member, son, brother, uncle, father, and friend. He worked at Enos Garcia Elementary. Nothing brought Andy more joy than ensuring the kids at school had good food to eat and a familiar face to say hello to. Andy's love ran deeply. It was a gentle and quiet kind of love. And it is still felt amongst so many family members and friends.

He is survived by his mother Dolores "Dee" Jeantette-Garcia; sister Lisa Jeantette-Mondragon (Mark); sons, Andrew and Mark Jeantette; nieces, Estrella, Feliz, & Joshlyn, and nephews Mario, Marcos, Joshua and Salvatores; Great-nieces, Kianna, Evangaline, and great-nephews, Ari Rey (Hijto), Mario Jr., Enzo, and Theodore & dear friend Eva Varos.

Andy’s love of lowriders and the art of cruising were his most favorite things.  He loved a good Fiesta!!!  After his long battle with cancer, he made it to that place of peace, and wellbeing.  He showed strength in the struggle and courage in the incomprehensible.  He will be forever missed, forever loved, and forever in our hearts. Nosotros siempre te amaremos.
