Andrew Michael Albritton, son of Michael and Elizabeth Carroll Albritton of O'Fallon, Mo., was born on Oct. 27, 2009, in St. Louis, Mo., and died on March 24, 2014, at the Children's Hospital in St. Louis at the age of four.
Drew attended pre-school at Zion Harvester Lutheran Church in St. Charles and loved playing with his little sister. He loved trains and heavy equipment, often waiting at the depot or chasing trains with Daddy. He loved dancing and singing, as well as watching Iron Man and Trains on his beloved I-pad. Macaroni and cheese and McDonald's double cheeseburgers with catsup only were among his favorite foods. He enjoyed snuggling with mommy. He had a huge heart and was courageous and fought his battle with the strength and determination of someone much older.
Besides his parents, Drew is survived by one sister, Caroline Reese Albritton of the home; by his maternal grandparents, Dean and Carolyn Carroll of Dexter; by his paternal grandparents, Emory and Pat Albritton of Kirkwood, Missouri and by three Uncle's, Clay Carroll, Rob Albritton and Ken Albritton.
