Obituary:

Andrew Thomas Lindell, 30, of San Antonio, Texas, passed away at home on Sunday, October 19, 2014. He was born to Thomas "Tom" Owen and Victoria "Vicki" Amy Louise Workman Lindell on February 28, 1984, in San Antonio, Texas. He is survived by both his parents.

Andrew is also survived by his grandmother, Bertha Cuffman Workman of Center Point, Texas; siblings, Jenny Rebecca (Lindell) Matthews and husband Jason of Melissa, Texas, Russell William Lindell and wife Kara Ann (Shanafelt) of Montgomery, Texas, and James Michael Lindell of San Antonio, Texas; nephews, Bryce Matthews, Cole Matthews, and William Lindell; nieces, Emma Lindell, Kylie Matthews and Caroline Lindell; aunts, Carol Workman and Cheryl Horning, both of Center Point, Texas; and multiple cousins and their spouses and children. Andrew is preceded in death by his grandparents A. William and Etna Miller Lindell of San Antonio, Texas, and Russell Lee Workman of Centerpoint, Texas.

Andrew was born with a hole in his heart and underwent open heart surgery at four months old. As he grew up, he enjoyed exploring the world around him, spending time with his friends, rollerblading, programming computers, being an avid Spurs fan, paintball, and golf. Andrew graduated from Tom C. Clark High School in 2002. True to his heart, he took a nontraditional path after high school. Andrew learned the art of sales and entrepreneurship in positions ranging from sales associate to selling his personal glass and metal art through his online stores.

Andrew's personality was always reserved but one of caring for all of his family. As his mom went through cancer treatments, he was consistently there to comfort and take her to all of her needed treatments. He stepped up in the same way recently when his father suffered a stroke that he has now recovered from. His personality, artistic talent, and constant presence will be missed.
