About

Andrew has passed away January 15th in the arms of his husband Paul Croes in the presence of Andrew's sister Janet at her home in Seattle. He died peacefully. Andrew was a down to earth jovial man with a great sense of humour. His passion was to make everyone around him excel and become the best they can be. Andrew was the Past-President of the Greater Vancouver Real Estate Board, British Columbia Real Estate Board, and Canadian Real Estate Board. He was also General Manager and Managing Broker for Royal Pacific Real Estate. He loved playing the bagpipes, and was the founding manager of the Simon Fraser University Pipe Band, participating in many trips abroad (including World Championships) with his friends from the band. He also loved show-tunes, going often on trips to London and New York to see the shows. He loved his friends and family above all else. Andrew leaves behind his many friends around the world, his husband Paul Croes, their son Marshall Faragher, his sisters Janet Ortis (Olie, Emily and Sarah) & Nancy Peck (Colin, Katie and Laurel), and close friends Margaret Fitzpatrick, Paul Friesen, Marie-Claude Leonard & Jim Marriott, Robert Martins & Wade Menard, and his Royal Pacific family.
