Andrew George Fitzgerald
Cape North
On the early morning of August 13, 2016, Andrew left this world at the age of 19 to join his “Papa”. Having lived his entire life in Cape North, Andrew was a graduate of Cabot High School and because he always wanted to serve and protect, he was sworn into the Canadian Armed Forces on January 20, 2016. Andrew completed his basic training in St. Jean, Quebec and was then sent on to the 4th Canadian Division Training Centre in Meaford, Ontario to complete his DP1 Infantry training with the Somme Platoon. Andrew successfully graduated to become part of the Royal Canadian Regiment. A Marksmanship Award was presented to Andrew upon his graduation which is awarded to the candidate who has achieved the highest standard in weapons classification.
Although Andrew’s life was cut short, he impacted many. With a smile upon his face and blue eyes like no other, he had a way of making friends easily and cherished every one of those friendships. His true passions consisted of riding his motorcycle on the Cabot Trail and playing video games with his sister Katie and cousins Jacob and Willy. Andrew couldn’t wait to get home to spend time with his high school friends and hangout at ‘da barn’. Upon joining the Canadian Armed Forces, Andrew forged new relationships and often referred to them as his family. Although his life would seem too short, those whose lives were touched by him understood that the quality of his existence far exceeds the quantity of time in which he was here with us on earth.
Leaving behind to cherish his life are his parents, Andrea (Rambeau) Fitzgerald and George Fitzgerald of Cape North; sisters, Emily and Katie; maternal grandmother Anne Rambeau; paternal grandparents, Emily Fitzgerald and John Fitzgerald; several aunts, uncles, cousins, many good friends, as well as his platoon. Andrew was predeceased by his ‘Papa’, Joseph Rambeau.
With Andrew’s passing we remind others that his life is one to be celebrated. Although we will miss him every day, his infectious smile and memorable laugh will forever remain in our hearts. Andrew was a young man that anyone would be proud to call son, brother, grandson, nephew or friend.
Special thanks to the Canadian Armed Forces for their ongoing support, to the Ontario Provincial Police and the Owen Sound Police Department. Your tireless efforts in searching for Andrew were appreciated. To all of you who lit candles and prayed, thank you.
Visitation for Andrew Fitzgerald will be held on Friday, August 26, 2016, from 11:00 a.m. – 2:00 p.m. in St. Joseph Church, Dingwall. A celebration of his life will take place at 2:00 p.m. with Fr. Lazarus Guria officiating. Expressions of sympathy may be forwarded to the family at www.jmjobesfuneralhome.com
“I’ll love you forever; I’ll like you for always, as long as I’m living my baby you’ll be”
