Andrew "Andy" Owen Meredith, 58 of Del Rio passed away Tuesday, May 14, 2024 in San Antonio after a lengthy battle with cancer. He was surrounded by close friends at the time of his passing.
He's preceded in death by his parents Otis & lyle Meredith. Survivors include his loyal companions, his dogs Willie & Pedro, his ranch foreman and close friend Oscar Ibarra, and numerous other close friends and hunting companions.
I had no idea Andy had died. I haven't talked to him in many years, but remember going to his house many times to check out his latest car project. He only lived a couple blocks away. I also remember sevaral of us drivng through the trees in that old jeep (his dads?) and pretty much ripping the spare tire off the side of the jeep with the trees. I still don't think the side of a jeep is a good place for a spare tire...
Thanks for sharing, Jason. Always tough finding out about the loss of a childhood friend. Thanks to Greg Abbott who informed me of Andy's passing. Greg has stayed in touch with Andy regularly all of these years, and I imagine that he may have also been in the jeep ride that you mentioned. Sending you a big hug, and hope tht you are able to make the 40th reunion this September.
