Finch; nephew, Blake (Nicole) Turner and son, Asher; nephew, Logan (Christa) Turner and daughter, Timbrey; nephew, Joshua (Shellie) Finch; nephew, Jacob Finch and son, Caleb; niece, Hanna (Malik) Finch Watson and daughter, Kaomi; nephew, Dylan Lawson, and his special cousin, Carolyn Moss.

 Andrew was preceded in death by his parents, his siblings, William E. Finch, J. W. Finch, Thomas Finch, Sarah Finch Addison, and Gladys Finch Valentine.
