Drew was a wonderful neighbor and friend. He was the first person we met in the neighborhood, at Russ’s Market, and we were fortunate to know him for the past two years. Always reliable and ready to lend a hand, Drew’s kindness stood out in every interaction. He was especially proud of his daughter, and it was clear how much she meant to him. We will miss him dearly.

Drew and I worked together at North Country windows and baths. I was his manager so we spoke nearly every day about everything going on in his work life as well as his home life. We shared a very close bond as Sid was the same age as my high school daughter and they both played high school sports at a very high level. He was so proud of all her accomplishments, game winning goals and the one that caught him off guard the most was her becoming class president. It was an amazing time for us as we watched our daughters succeed together and of course the occasional drama. Drew was the most dedicated employee and never missed a day of work, he was Mr reliable to say the least. Even just a few weeks before his passing he would stop in to the office and let me know that all he wanted to do was get back to work. Drew was 1 of a kind and I will miss him dearly. He was a good friend that made me laugh every day. Love ya Drew!!
