Andy married his high school sweetheart Beverly (Steagall) Braden, raised their daughter Ashley together and remained friends with Bev long after the two separated.

He laid tile in some of the nicest homes in the Mansfield area and worked alongside many talented tradesmen in factories, yards, and homes around the state. Recently, he was proud to be employed at Tavens in Mansfield, Ohio. Andrew was preceded in death by his father, Amos Bolen and his stepfather, Bruce Engle.
