Andra began working as Assistant Director of Nursing at NHC Healthcare (formerly Kentucky Rest Haven) in April of 1979 and retired as Director of Nursing in December 2006. She brought her children up in church, cared for her aging parents and was always quick to volunteer her cooking and sewing skills for others. Andra felt nursing was her calling along with making her residents comfortable and cared for in their last days - thank you to Baptist Health Hospice for doing the same for her. She had the gift of making something out of nothing and was known to pull a prank by short-sheeting your bed. Daughter, sister, wife, Mama, Grammy and friend. 'Peace I leave with you; My peace I give to you; not as the world gives do I give to you. Do not let your heart be troubled, nor let it be fearful'. John 14:27 Funeral services will be 11:00 A.M.
