IN LOVING MEMORY OF JEREMY ANDREWS — SMITHTOWN, NY
It is with broken hearts and profound sadness that we share the passing of Jeremy Andrews of Smithtown, New York. Jeremy departed this world far too soon, leaving behind a legacy of love, laughter, and compassion that touched everyone fortunate enough to know him. His sudden departure has left a deep void in the hearts of family, friends, and the Smithtown community that will never truly be filled.
A Life Full of Kindness and Light
Jeremy was more than just a friend, a son, a brother, or a neighbor—he was a light in the lives of so many. Known for his warm smile, easy laugh, and gentle spirit, Jeremy had a way of making people feel at ease in his presence. He never hesitated to lend a helping hand or a listening ear, and he made it a point to show up for those who needed him—whether that meant helping a friend move, volunteering at a local event, or simply sitting beside someone in silence when words weren’t enough.
His presence was magnetic, his energy sincere. He had a deep appreciation for life’s simple pleasures—music that spoke to the soul, time spent in nature, deep conversations that lasted into the night, and the joy of watching his loved ones succeed and smile.
Cherished By Many
Jeremy’s deep bond with his family was evident in everything he did. To his parents, he was a source of unwavering pride. To his siblings, he was both a protector and a best friend. And to his many friends, he was the kind of person who could turn a bad day around with just a look or a laugh.
Those who knew him best say Jeremy never sought the spotlight—but somehow, he always became the heart of the room. His compassion extended to strangers, animals, and anyone who seemed alone or in pain. His heart was as big as the town he loved, and Smithtown was better because Jeremy was in it.
A Legacy That Lives On
Though Jeremy’s life was cut short, the impact he made during his time on this earth will echo through the lives he touched. He taught others the importance of kindness, of truly listening, of living honestly and authentically. He will be remembered for the light he brought into every room, the way he made people feel seen and valued, and the deep love he gave without condition or hesitation.
His absence is felt deeply and painfully, but so too is the presence he created—a presence that will continue to inspire and uplift, even in his physical absence.
Remembering Jeremy
Plans are currently underway to honor Jeremy’s life and memory in a way that reflects the love and joy he gave to others. The family invites those who knew him to gather, share stories, and celebrate a life that, though far too short, was immensely meaningful.
In lieu of flowers, the family encourages donations to local mental health organizations or youth mentorship programs—causes Jeremy cared deeply about and supported in his own quiet, meaningful ways.
Rest peacefully, Jeremy Andrews.
You were one of the good ones—truly.
You may be gone from our sight, but never from our hearts.
Your light will never dim.
You will always be missed, always be loved, and never be forgotten.
