      I don’t really know what to say when it comes to these things but here it goes when my mom called me and said your name I thougbt to my self how nice you we’re. And the times we pas each other in the hall way and you’d smile and wave or the time you’d sit by me sometimes on the bus and just start talking to me oh man I still can’t believe it. R.I.P riley andrews you will always be in my heart<3

      1. Wow… Riley I knew you as a wrestler. That’s about it. But the little I did know you was as an amazing friend, hard working, and you put others first. You’ll be dearly missed by all of us… R.I.P. Riley

    2. Riley ,

      Though I did not know you , you seemed like a very nice guy ! You were always so quiet , but always with a smile in your face. As if the world did not mean anything because you we’re our own person. Looking at all the comments we can say that you really could connect with everyone. I thought about why this happened to you? Why did your life have to be taken away so quickly? I came to conclude that god needs you up there because you are one of his precious angels and your life should be up there. Just this year I saw you and Gracen as a happy couple . I never thought you would die so sudden . I hope that you can rest in peace and hopefully we can see you again one day. You are and always will be in our memory ! 🙁

    Riley,
    You were an Awesome Friend. Playing baseball and basketball with you was really fun. Knowing you since first grade and spending all those years with you was fun too. When you moved away, everyone that you knew and were friends with missed you a LOT. I still can’t believe that you passed. R.I.P buddy!

  6. Riley, you were an awesome friend. I really did enjoy hanging out with you when I could. I also really enjoyed playing Xbox with you, it was really fun and Amusing. You were just an amazing person and I hope I can come to your funeral but I might not make it. Hopefully I will be able too come. Riley I really wish this didn’t happen to you, I am just devistated about this horrible situation and I know it’s alittle weird for guys to cry, but I did just alittle and you were the first death that I ever cried too. We will all miss you very dearly Riley Andrews and we all love you.

    Sincerely, Josh Barton

    You were so amazing. You were so smart and its hard to imagine you could even be gone in real life. I am so sorry this happened to you. You were way to young to die. Why does this have to happen to you. I remember the great times we had in 6th grade math. Even if I was having a bad day you could brighten it up. You were amazing. Although you are in a better place now we all will still miss you.

  8. Brittany ball

    Riley, I can’t believe this happend to you. You were probably one of the sweetest person I have ever met you cared about everybody and you are in a better place now. God has a plan for you and he knows best for you! I know it must me hard for the Andrews family and my prayers and thoughts all go to your family. I really only knew you because of Gracen but you always sat at the same lunch table with me and you were always so quiet but around your friends you were really outgoing. Now you are in gods hands and he will for sure take good care of you. Rest in peace Riley you are so loved and everybody is DEFINITLY going to miss your sweet and kind personality 🙁 the Andrews family will be in my thoughts and prayers 🙁

  15. Rachel Deramee

    Riley, you were amazing. And as you can see everyone at Navo misses you terribly. Why did you have to leave? I know that you love God and that you’re prasing Him right now. So in a way I’m sure you’re fine. We all miss you and will wonder of the kind of person you would have been as we all grow older. We will cherish the moments we had together and mourn the ones we have missed. You will be in our hearts and prayers forever. You brightened people’s day and gave them something to laugh about. You were too young to go. Only 13 years. But we will all see you again someday. I’ll see you in Heaven Riley, we love you. ~Rachel

    Wow. I can’t believe this happend. That to show you how life flashes you before your eyes. I can tell you I did not rxpect this to happen. I never knew Riley that well. We used to hang out at the Basketball games with Lexie, Gracen, Ally, ect. I sure can tell you he was the sweetest thing ever. He didn’t even know me and he was so nice to me. When I found this out I really started crying, he was such an amazing person. I really don’t understand why this would happen to him. Well.. Only God knows. Now his precious soul is in the hands of Jesus. He will be taken care of in Heaven. The Andrews family, you will be in our prayers. Riley, you will be missed dearly && we love you. Stay sweet.
    Also remember..
    People say “You never know what you got till its gone.”, but I don’t agree with that. I think, “We knew what we had, we just never thought we would loose it.”
    Stay strong.<3

    I was really sad and i was crying about it and we use to talk alot in 3rd grade u didnt deserve this to happend to u RIP ):

  21. Riley, you were so sweet and loving towards Gracen. I remember band with John, Gracen, you, and I. We would always make up the best jokes and just have a great time. You were one of the best truphet players and you were so sweet and caring toward everyone. It’s still not real to me that you are gone, but you will never be forgotten. You are forever in our hearts. I love you and miss you Riley. See you in heaven. Prayers to the Andrew family.❤

  22. Riley, you were one of the nicest people I’ve ever met! I didn’t get to know you as well as some people, but anytime we talked you never had a bad thing to say. I really wish I could have got to know you better than I did. You, of all people, did not deserve this, but God has a plan for everyone and this is his plan for you. To go ahead and be with me. He will take care of you up there, you’re in a better place. Rest in peace, Riley. You will be missed by tons of people. Your family is in my prayers.

  32. Kylie Spradlin

    Riley!
    You were an amazing person! Great at sports, nice, funny and sweet! And you were a great student, friend, athlete and son! God has gained an amazing player to football, baseball and golf team. You will be an amazing soldier for Jesus’s battle! You were funny in social studies! And also in Spanish and English! You lit up my world and everybody else’s! You are now the only reason I can be strong! Because you are strong! You are probably one of the sweetest guys I have met in a long time. You will be a joy to be around in heaven. Love you!!

  35. Riley,

You were one of those students who brightened any teacher’s day. I will miss that about you. You will be missed dearly by everyone!!!! But I know I will take comfort in that you are dancing on streets of gold and are in the loving arms of our God!!!!

  38. Ben premenko

    Riley

    I just got the chance to get to know him and become real friends I don’t know why this happened to him, but god has a reason for everything he doesn’t just do something for no good reason, we have to believe something good will come out of this. I thank him for the time I got to spend with him even though it wasn’t a lot it still impacted my life. Riley will always be in my memory and in my prayers.

  39. Kenechi Nworjih

    I’m sorry this has happened to you, iv known you for 5 years and I wish I got to meet your parents, you were the smartest kid I knew you helped me with some of my work that I didn’t understand , and you teached me a lot of things. The last time I ever saw you was in 2011 at the football tournament where we went against you. That day was also the last sentence I said to you which was “your a really god quarterback “. After that I never saw him again so god please take care of Riley, help his family through these tough times and help me and all his friends pray for him. Your in a same place now Riley ill miss you.

  41. Maddie Rollins & Taylor Pierce

    Dear Riley,
    We remember you when we went to elementary school together, you were so nice to everyone, I guess that’s why we wanted to be friends with you. You were always happy, with a smile on your face that was very contagious. Everyone loved you, and those who didn’t , you would continue to be the kind, loving friend you were and soon they would forget why they didn’t like you. I’m so sorry this had to happen to you, your a friend we loss to soon, but now I know that you’re an angel in a better place who is watching over all of us. We will always love you and miss. You will be forever in our hearts.
    Rest in peace,Riley we love you

  42. You are amazing! You were a great friend and a awesome boyfriend to heaven,it is impossible for me to think that you are gone. We have so many good memories, my prayers will always be with you. We all love you Riley <3
    Prayers to the Andrew family.

    Dearest Riley,
    As a teacher at Paloma you still stand out in my memory as an outstanding student and such a wonderful young man. Always polite, helpful, courteous, kind and funny. I loved sharing robotics with you and having you in my EXPO class. My heart hurts and is heavy with sadness. I know your family is so close and supportive, may God give them peace. I will never forget your face and your good heart. Prayers of comfort for your family.
    Love,
    Mrs. Mainz

    Hippy,
    It was a joy and pleasure getting to know you and watch you play baseball. I will will always remember your big smile! You are now playing for a different team and I know you will be cheering for all your buddies from Heaven. I will keep your family in my prayers.
    You will be missed,
    Lance

  46. Amanda Biles

    Riley, I know i didnt know you, but my heart absolutely dropped when heard this news. I know how hard this is for everybody. We didn’t just lose you, we lost a friend, a family member, an angel. But I’m not worrying about this, because in Matthews 19:14 it says: But Jesus said, “Let the little children come to me and do not hinder them, for to such belongs the kingdom of heaven.” I trust you with the arms of the Lord. Rest in your amazing mansion God has for you buddy. Gone but never forgotten.
    ~Amanda Biles

  47. Riley,
    Oh where do I even begin. You were such an amazing friend to have. You cared about everyone and always made sure everyone was included. I remember that first day in 5th grade when I walked into class and you were one of the first people who would talk to me more or less even talk to me. I really liked that. You would always check up on me and see how I was doing and I will always appreciate that. You were the sweetest guy I had ever meant and I’m sure that nobody will ever forget you.
    I will always remember how in the end of 5th grade in track and feild day when all the fire trucks came and splashed water over everyone Riley would stomp in all the puddles and just splash everyone(:
    Everyone will remember you for the good, sweet, and caring person you are.
    You will be missed,
    Love Bethy
    • rest in paradise •

  48. Meaghan page

    Riley, you are always so nice to people I still remember in 3rd grade when I was all by myself I had no one to talk to no one to be my friend you came up to me and talked to me you were so nice. I don’t know why I havnt talked to you last year or this year but you were always there for people when they needed it and now you are up in heaven where you are save and god has a new strong angel, you are in a better place we will miss you. I will keep you and your family in my prayers. Love, Meaghan Page

  49. I never knew but I have heard your story and you sound like such an inspiring person. You seemed like a strong powerful person. Now you will be in heaven a happy joyful place heaven has gained another angel.

  50. Joseph Frisby

    Riley,

    I had a lot of fun playing baseball with you. You were a great baseball player and friend. I really missed you when you moved, but now I am astonished. Playing wiffle ball and playing video games with you all night was awesome. When I first heard you were coming down that one weekend to play baseball with us again I was so excited. The Outlaws will really miss you! You are in a better place.

  51. Samson Hudson

    Riley,

    I first met you 6 years ago playing baseball on the Texas Rangers. That was so much fun. I really appreciated your good attitude even when things werent going the way we wanted. You were a good example to me. When I heard that you were moving, I was disapointed. I really enjoyed the friendly competition between the Texans and your team, the Outlaws. You will be missed by many people. I wish I had the chance to know you better. Your family will be in our prayers.

    Samson

  52. Maddie Rollins

    You where funny with a giant smile. You always told me that I loved your hair( which I did ). I wish you were still here

    RIP Riley #11

  53. Sarah Stubblefield

    Riley,

    There is now an empty seat at our table in math. There is now an empty locker, next to mine. There was an empty spot in heaven, waiting for you. That spot is now filled. Eventually, the seat at our table will be filled, as will the locker next to mine, but everyone will always keep you in their hearts, including me. I didn’t know you too well, but we did see each other everyday, and our table would talk about the homework in math. Who’s gonna keep annoying Danna by calling her ‘cuz’? It’s gonna be really quiet by the lockers without you talking to Carley. Riley, we can’t wait to see you again one day soon. And as we get older, we may not remember you, but when we get to heaven, we’ll see you, and remember you. My family and I’s prayers go out to your family, and we pray for the healing and comfort that can only come from our Heavenly Father. See ya soon Riley. Save a place for us.

    Sincerely,
    Sarah Stubblefield

  54. You are missed and loved dearly I know you will be in the great hands of gofer are all praying for you

Your smiling face always made my day! Even though I only had you in one of my classes, you were the one that made it fun! When you were by my locker talking to your friends you were always laughing which made you fun to be around! It amazed me how you were always happy! Rest in Peace, Riley. I will never forget you!

    You were the funniest and sweetest person I have ever met. I know you are with God and Jesus in heaven and I will see you again one day but until then I will miss you terribly. I will miss you laughing and smiling 24/7 and always making me laugh with you. You were always so up beat. I don’t think there will be one day I don’t think about you.

  61. Dear Riley,
    Words simply cannot describe the great loss our world has suffered by your passing. You will forever be remembered as a brilliant and beautiful soul who touched the hearts of all fortunate enough to know you. I will miss your genuine smile and grace that you so easily gave. I pray for your family to know God is with them through this difficult journey and to realize we will see you again one day. May God wrap you in His arms and embrace the true Angel He has in heaven.
    Your Paloma Creek Counselor,

    Hippie,
    From now on, each time I step on a diamond, I will see # 11 behind the plate. I will see a fine young man with sweat coming down his face and a uniform covered in dirt. Both myself and the rest of your coaches were always in admiration of the way you played the game once you stepped between those white lines. I so enjoyed all those wonderful years of having the oppertunity in coaching you and having you being a part of my teams. Thank you for being such a great team member who was always there for everyone. I know the Outlaws have gained a secret weapon. We now have an Angel watching over us. You also were the type of young man that all parents hope their sons will be. I know God’s team is a bit stronger now with you in heaven. take care # 11, I will be seeing one day and we can play catch.

    Frank and Tami,
    Our prayers are with you and your family. Thank you so much in letting me be apart of your lives and Hippie’s. I will treasure the memories forever. Always know the Outlaws family are always here for you.

    Love Larry & Kelli

You were one of my really good friends. I mean you were funny, talented, smart. I remember we even argued over who was better, OSU or OU.

  78. As your principal, I saw you flourish more and more each year. We had to move you to a higher grade during your math time because you mastered all the objectives in your grade level. You were gave your teachers an incredible joy as you progressed academically. I prepared myself to hear great things from you as you got older because I knew that you were way above the average student. Your contagious and innocent smile was evident regardless of any situation. Your grandmother was so proud of you as she spoke of your accomplishments in the front office. As for me, I bid you adios and I know you are in an indescribable place where good abounds and you will fit right in Riley. May God comfort your grandmother, Ocie, and your supportive parents. Words can not soothe the pain they must be feeling. My prayers are with them and my happiness is with you as you enjoy heaven and all it has to offer you. You will be remembered with love. Mr. R. Munguia, first and ex principal of Paloma Creek Elementary.

  79. Riley, I did not know you personally but from what I’ve heard you are an amazing guy! I hope you win that baseball game up there <3.

  80. Morgen Rhynes

    Dear Riley Andrews,

    You were a great person. Your passion for sports and God was admirable. Words can’t describe how special you are to this world. Knowing that you are in heaven has given me the strength to right this note. I want you to know that we love you. All of us. I remember when you came to my pool party and we had a blast! Rest in Peace.

    Love,
    Morgen Rhynes

    Riley, where do I even begin, you were such a great friend, I’ve known you for such a long time and when i heard that this happened to you, i was sad and I wish I could of said my goodbyes before this. I remember that we always had such a good time at my birthday parties and you used to call them Mega Parties because it was so fun. Riley, I remember that you were so quiet at school but at your house, that was a different story, you were so loud especially if you got mad but it was funny. I remember all the fun times we had at school, in Expo, and in robotics, i remember all the fun stuff we built in robotics like the Santa sleigh and reindeer and also all the fun we had playing Apples to Apples in EXPO. I remember how you always brought a smile to everyone’s face and how you can make them laugh too. Riley, i know we’ve had our ups and downs but i just want to say that i’m sorry. Hope you have a good time in Heaven.

    Dear Riley, first of all, thank you so much for being such a good friend to my brother Andrew. I still remember you guys playing in my house or right outside. I remember your smile and your laugh as you played with my brother and I remember you at his birthday parties and in band. I don’t know why God wanted you so soon but I only pray that you are resting right beside him and is in peace. You will be missed, thank you for being my brother’s friend and I Thank God that he put you in our lives. We’re praying for you and your family. May you be at rest with God…

  83. Brenda Ramos

    I got to know Riley when I taught him in first grade. He was so sweet, smart and a friend to everyone. If someone needed a partner Riley was the first student picked. My brother and his famliy later moved across the street from Riley. Lucky for me, my kids and I got to see him as the years went by. He was always so nice to my kids. He was a great friend to my niece and a great kid. My thoughts and prayers go out to his family. Rest in peace Riley.

  84. Griffin McPherson

    I never knew you. But you went out with one of the most amazing girls I’ve ever know. And to know know that she loved you so much, makes me realize what an amazing person you must have been. So many people adored you and will miss you. Rest In Peace.

  85. Riley,

    I didn’t know you but from what I hear you were an amazing guy. That you were funny, sweet,and caring. Especially to Gracen. You will be missed by everyone. But now you’re in the hands of God, so you’ll be safe forever.

  86. Riley,

    Tell that you would do great things in life.
    You were intelligent, kind, loving, amazing,
    A wonderful athlete, and more!

    Sooo much!! I wish i got to know you.. :/

  87. Riley,
    I have never met you, never seen you, never even heard about you. But I’ve read all these notes, and like a really nice guy. I hate it when people leave the physical world, but they really leave. I’ve heard that when you the chills, it means a spirit is in your presence. I want those of you that knew Riley to know that just so you won’t miss him being gone. He’s REALLY gone. We just can’t see him. God Bless You, Riley. We’ll miss you. May you Rest In Peace.

  89. Eric Cogswell

    Riley was a smart student and a great friend.What are some of the feelings that one might feel when a friend passes away. When someone that is special to us is gone it can be difficult to continue living life. Things that were special to you may begin to seem pointless when you don’t have that special person to share it with. All of the things that you did together are reminders of the loss that you have suffered.
    although you can never get them back, you can always be sure they are in a happier place.

    Miss you Riley,

    Eric

    Riley/ Riley’s family,

    riley, wow never thought this would happen to you. when Brian came and told be after he got the call from Michael I thought he was joking with me and obviously it is true. I almost passed out when I found out it was true. I was shocked and confused for weeks. I had so much memories with you!! I remember us flirting with each other when you came over to Michael’s and Mrs. Tabitha was watching me, Brian, and Kyele. I was so excited to go to Michael’s to hang out with you. we go back to 2 grade. you were such an amazing friend and a better boyfriend. I will never forget the time I was in your garage and Brian, Michael, and you played a song from rascal flats with your guitars, that was a funny time. I don’t go one day without thinking about you or your family. my prayers are for the Andrew’s family.
    R.I.P Riley,
    Love Brittany

  94. It’s almost been 2 months since you died. I don’t know if people are still posting on this today but I don’t care I wish you never had to leave this earth. I’m sort I didn’t go to your funeral. And I’m sorry for the people who have hurt you over the years. You were a great friend, student, and you were just great no matter what it was. On my phone your contact name was giggles because that’s all you did, you giggled and and smiled. No matter what you did you were always a good friend and a good person. Right now your probably in heaven talking to your new friends and your loved ones who have passed. But just remember that no matter where you are you are always loved, missed, and cherished. If I knew this was going to happen before I would have never stopped talking to you. When I first found out you died I didn’t cry I was to shocked to I couldn’t talk I just couldn’t think. When I talked about it I started crying. I know how it is to loose a friend or even someone you barely knew r’s happen to me and and a bunch more people that went to providence and Navo. The last thing I said to you was on Instagram talking to you about your smile, to have always had a good smile. That Remod me every time I’m on Instagram it says R.I.P Riley Andrews with hearts around it that’s how it is on my Instagram and many more people’s. yo will never be forgotten Riley. You will always be loved missed and remembered.

  95. Rachel Deramee

    Riley I don’t know how often people wrote on this anymore, but last night you were a topic of conversation. We were at a track meet, and all of a sudden, we said that this year, this season, was for you. We said that all our volleyball cross country basketball and now track season was for you. We know that you loved us all and wanted us to succeed with all your heart. We wanted the same thing for you. So in a way now, you’re like our coach. We play for you, we run and serve and shoot for you. All this 2012-2013 school year in sports are for you. We always remember you when we are struggling, and we remember how you used to encourage us. At our very last basketball game, we wrote on our hands, RIP RILEY 12-26-12. Our seasons are for you. We love you and miss you more and more each day. You will forever be in our hearts, Riley.
    Love~Rachel Deramee

    Riley you were one of my closest friends. Ya I would get mad at you from time to time.But the next day we would be friends again. So 6th and 8th hour would never be fun without you . The only time we would laugh is when you were there. I miss You, and I will never forget you. R.I.P Riley. Great things don’t last forever

  97. Rachel Deramee

    Riley,

    I can’t believe its been almost 6 months since you died. To think that the world could lose such an inspiring person in a matter of seconds. I often think back to the first time I heard you had passed. I don’t know how I felt… In shock maybe? Stunned? I can’t mourn you enough. I will continue to pray for your family and that they will remember: God always has a reason. Your death was terrible, but you brought all of us together. Your story, although much too short, has inspired us all. You are our reason to work our hardest, Riley, because we know that’s what you would have wanted. You will live in our hearts forever, Riley. We all love and miss you. Continued prayers to the Andrews Family. See you in Heaven, number 11.

  98. yesterday marked exactly nine months since Riley passed I can’t believe that time goes by this fast Riley is truly loved and missed.
    Rest In Peace Riley
    To the kid with the golden heart and the community with a broken heart

Everyone misses you. I wish I would have known you! You made everyone laugh and everyone smile and were an amazing person. You made everyone have an amazing day and you just were so perfect and still are. I just wanted to say that we all love you and Rest In Peace Riley Andrews.
