The Ionia Sentinel-Standard, Wednesday, September 26, 2007


Robert (Bob) David Andres, of Ionia, age 79, went to be with his Lord on 
Monday Sept. 24, 2007 after a brief illness.

He was born on April 29, 1928 on the family farm in Belding, son of Peter and 
Margaret Andres. Bob was a long-time constituent of Easton United Methodist 
Church. He enjoyed holidays with his family, square danced for 30 years and 
could fix any car that rolled in his driveway. He retired from Consumers Power 
in 1990 and spent his retirement pursuing his interests of hunting deer and 
turkey, camping and playing guitar at the Commission on Aging Thursday 
evenings, at various nursing homes and with his band the “Country Folks”. He 
will be sadly missed by his family and friends, but we know he is playing the 
guitar God picked out for him while he waits for us in heaven.

Bob is survived by his wife of 57 years, Irene (Houseman); son, David; 
daughter, Deb (Harry) Towner; granddaughters, Heather (Drew) Johnson, Stacey 
(Gabe) VanderWulp and Maggie Andres; great-grandchildren, Loren and Sarah 
Johnson and baby VanderWulp (due in January); brother, Edwin (Sylvia)Andres; 
sister, Margie Kooze; daughter-in-law, Donna Andres; sister-in-law, Hilda 
(Richard) Donovan and many special in-laws, nieces, nephews and lots of 
friends.

Funeral services will be held at 1 p.m. on Thursday, Sept. 27, 2007 at the 
Easton United Methodist Church, 4970 Potters Rd, Ionia, with Pastor Nancy 
Patera officiating. A lunch served by the Easton UMW will follow the service. 
The family will receive friends from 5 to 8 p.m. on Wednesday at Lake Funeral 
Home in Ionia. Contributions can be made to the Easton Church, the Ionia 
Commission on Aging or Safe Haven Humane Society in Bob's name. The family 
would like to thank Ionia Area Hospice for their wonderful care during the 
last two weeks.
