Remember Andy playing Bass guitar with the Continentals. If I remember right, he built his own amplifier for it.Great guy and he will be missed.
My thoughts and prayers are with you all as you grieve Andy's loss. When I built my house over 20 years ago, Andy did the electrical work and remained my electrician for many years. I always enjoyed his smile and hearty laugh and enjoyed meeting his son when he started working with his Dad. He was such a proud father! He will be greatly missed!!
"Death ends a life, not a relationship.As long as we love each other and remember the feeling of love we had, we can die without ever really going away. All the love you created is still there All the memories are still there. You live on in the hearts of everyone you have touched and nurtured while you were here." Wise words of The late Professor Morrie Schwartz.. Andy was the most altruistic man I have ever known.
Mrs. Linda, Leslie, Andy and Ashley - my heart breaks for each one of you! Your family is in my every thought and prayer. Mr. Andy was so dear to so many and loved by all who knew him. I will miss him dearly and will always remember that contagious laugh! He was a man of perfectionist - his beautiful family is the example of his perfection! His love will shine upon and through you always. All my love & prayers!!
I was extremely saddened to hear about Mr. Andy's passing. I'm so grateful for all the time I spent at the Schlenker home as a young kid with "little" Andy, one of my best friends. My heart goes out to all of you, Mrs. Linda, Leslie, Ashley and my bud, Andy. I know what a great and helpful man Mr. Schlenker was and he will be dearly missed. Your family is in my prayers and will continue to be.

Wishing you God's grace during what I know is a most difficult time. The Schlenker family has been interlaced with my life since elementary school, and I have nothing but fondest memories of that association.

I am shocked and saddened over the loss of Andy. I knew him through a business relationship over 20 years and he was such fine man. I enjoyed doing business with him - his honesty and integrity were high on the list of his attributes, but his genuine kindness and happy nature will as well be remembered.
My condolences go out to the family. May you feel God's presence and love during this most difficult time.
Linda and Family: Our hearts are saddened to hear of your loss. Andy was a great guy and a friend to this community. Our thoughts and prayers are with you at this time for peace and comfort. Kenny and Cyndi Fussell
I will miss our miss our weekly conversations about our lives, our families and our jobs. We shared knowledge and tools and though we made a living in the same field, we were never competitors. I will miss you Andy.
Linda
