THE FAMILY of a man who tragically and unexpectedly died on November 12 at the age of just 57 have said he will be dearly missed by all who knew him.

Andrew McKeeman leaves behind his beloved partner Julie, stepdaughters Samantha and Rebecca, grandchildren Jacob, Mia and Harry and his brother Richard.

Middlesex-born Andrew had worked as a taxi driver, Judo instructor and special needs teaching assistant throughout his life before finally settling into a role at Tesco alongside Julie.

Family and friends say that he was the life of any room he entered and brought smiles and laughter to all who knew him.

Andrew’s final wish was that people would simply treat someone they love to something nice, just as he would have done.

The family are also accepting donations to the RSPB in his memory, to donate go to: www.memorygiving.com/andrewmckeeman.
