Andrew Gottschalk - Recent
Andrew was born on April 17, 1980 in Richland, WA and left us unexpectedly on August 23,
2006 in Seattle, WA.

Andrew grew up in Richland, WA and Grand Junction, CO. He graduated from Richland High
School in 1998. Andrew attended the University of Washington and graduated in 2003 with
degrees in Economics and Anthropology. He was last employed at Boeing.

Andrew leaves behind his parents, Alan ('72) and Sharon Gottschalk, his fiancee, the love
of his life Alyssa Walz ('00). He also leaves behind his grandparents Paul and Marie Gottschalk,
Dorothy Westbrook, and Joseph Westbrook; special great aunt Kathryn Gottschalk, aunts and
uncles Ann Smet ('69), Kathi & John Dent, Gary ('70) & Judy Gottschalk, John ('80) & Heidi Hogan ('82)
Gottschalk, Kevin Westbrook and Keith Westbrook; cousins Angie & Jason Southwick, Mark &
Elaine Gottschalk, Michelle & Garrett Gottschalk, Alisha Crawford, Courtney, Jeff & Eric
Dent, Ashley Westbrook, Angela, Christina, & Heather Westbrook; Alyssa's family Ron,
Margie, Tyson & Kramer Walz; and many special friends.

Andrew was loved beyond measure and 26 years was not enough time, but we are grateful for
every hour of those 26 years. His shining presence will be missed forever. We know he's
looking for the best bands in heaven and probably driving a Mustang.

There will be memorial service for friends & family at 11am Saturday, September 2, 2006 at
Einan's Funeral Home, Richland, Washington. Immediately following there will be a
celebration of the life of Andrew at the Walz home in West Richland.

Please remember who this is for and dress accordingly. Jeans, T-shirts & Birkenstocks are
OK. No flowers please. Donations may be made in his name to American Indian Education Fund,
PO Box 27491, Albuquerque, NM 87125-9847, 1-800-881-8694; or to the charity of your choice.
