Andrew B Tellez

In Loving Memory of Andrew B. Tellez. A native Texan he never failed to greet you without a Million Dollar smile. Born of humble beginnings, he worked hard and strove to be a great American, a skilled Architectural Designer, a great provider, a seeker of knowledge and most of all, a loving husband and father. He was an avid lover of art and collectibles in all forms, from Old World Art Masterpieces to garage sale bargains. His knowledge of cinema and actors was astounding which he would share to all who would listen. The consummate storyteller, he always seemed to include a life lesson to his listener. He was a smooth dancer and a jokester to the end. He was a true gentleman with a kind and giving heart who never met a stranger. He will be truly missed by his family and friends.
