Remembering Andrew Farrell

Andrew is in back, looking over the shoulders of two teammates. This picture was taken for the site in 2001.

Andrew Farrell, a popular member of George Washington High's 2001 baseball team, died
4/18/04 of cancer. Two ex-teammates, Jason Welte and Craig Mullen, collaborated to
write a wonderful story about "Drew" that appeared in the Northeast News Gleaner on 5/13.

Jason is a volunteer assistant with Washington's baseball team. In Andrew's memory, Jason
and Jim O'Hara, another volunteer assistant, are establishing the Andrew Farrell "Spirit of
Courage Award," to be presented to a baseball player each year at Washington's sports banquet.

Senior third baseman Ken Radziak was the first winner. We congratulate him!

I am the brother of Andrew Farrell the George Washington High School Alumni baseball player who lost his life to Leukemia. After reading all of the ones you posted for other deceased athletes, it is a true honor to all of them. Though they may be gone, they will never be forgotton. They are continuing to do what they loved to do except in a higher place. Again thanks to everyone who has sent me their condolences and a special thanks to you Ted for keeping these young athletes' names well known.
T.J. Farrell
