In loving memory of

Andrew Earl Bolton
May 30, 1960 - February 19, 2020

Andrew Earl Bolton was born on May 30, 1960 in Athens, Georgia to Bassell Earl Bolton, Jr. & Ilse K. Jahrosdorfer. He attended high school in Dover, Delaware.
Andrew married Miranda Blankenship in 1991. He and Miranda had two sons together, Tyler and Brandon. Though he and Miranda divorced, they have remained friends and have raised their boys together. In order to support his family, he made a living as a mechanic, a bartender, then later worked for Bose sound systems as an installer.

Andrew was a character, liked to play his hand at blackjack and poker. He was always up to date on the latest technology and loved to give advice on TVs, Stereos, computers and phones. He would never pass up an opportunity for a great steak and baked potato. Andrew was always willing to lend a helping hand, especially when someone had car trouble. This is how he showed his caring side.
Andrew had a special bond with his boys. He and Tyler spent many nights tinkering in the garage on their bikes and cars. He and Brandon spent most Sundays watching the Dallas Cowboys. They also enjoyed a good game of chess. The three of them enjoyed grilling out, drinking a cold one and just being together. This time together will be missed most of all.

On Wednesday, February 19, 2020, Andrew Bolton was called Home. He was greeted above by: His mother, Ilse.
His life will continue to be remembered and celebrated by his sons: Tyler Bolton and his girlfriend Joan, Brandon Bolton and his girlfriend Bianca Caballero; the mother of his children: Miranda Bussell and her husband Jim; his father: Earl Bolton; his brother: Steve Bolton; his true love: "little Ellie May", his trusted dog who never left his side; and other relatives and close friends.

"One week from today will be 365 days since you?ve left us. It seems so unreal.. we think about you literally every single day. Sometimes I find Brandon & I just looking at your pictures we have at home & next thing you know we?re having endless tears, talking about the good times we got to spend with you before you left. B & I are taking you with us to Vegas & the Grand Canyon for your 1st year away from us. You will finally be able to visit ?? Oh man, what I would do to hug you once last time, I love you Andrew. Please continue to guide your sons in the right direction in life & keep on watching over all of us, fly high ? Bianca ?"

"A little over 3 months has passed & it feeels like forever. What Brandon & I would give to watch one more Cowboy game with you. I know you?ll always be in our hearts, we just miss you so much I was so ecstatic to become part of your family. Forever wishing things were different & you were still here. It still feels so unreal, Brandon & I miss you for pieces. I will try to confite to lead the way to success as you wished. Thank you for coming to my dreams. There is an emptiness inside of me -- a void that will never be filled. I hope you?re having a blast playing catch up with your mama ?? Much love, b. "
