Mazie Iva Andrews

Ms. Iva, born Oct 1, 1936, (39 and holding), was rejoined and escorted through the gates of heaven Sunday night, Aug. 24, 2014, by her loving husband, Thomas Andrews. They are both happily residing in the presence of the Lord for all eternity. Ms. Iva had been sick for a while and the angels had been busy preparing for her. However her absence from us has already left friends and family all in a state of deep sorrow. She was preceded in death by her parents, George and Julie Glass; husband, Thomas C. Andrews; two brothers, J.W. Glass and wife Shirley, Coy Alford and wife Lucille; a sister, Lillie Mae Logsdon and husband Raymond; brothers-in-law, Paul Hoerter, Don Jones; and son-in-law, Doug Wampler.
