“My best friend and eternal companion passed away yesterday at 12:30 pm. She had bacterial meningitis that went undetected until the damage was irreversible. I feel like the luckiest person in the world to have convinced her to marry me and am so grateful we could spend 14 years together, 10 of which we were married. She loved family and friends. Being with those she loved brought her great joy. Please know that she loves you and that someday we will be a family all together again. Keep my 3 girls Brooklyn, Karalee, and Katelyn in your prayers.”
- Kyle Lemmon July 10, 2012
Kyle and Andrea have touched so many of our lives and, although we can’t ease the pain that Kyle, Brooklyn, Karalee, Katelyn and their extended family are going through, we want to help in someway. We know there are many of you that would like to show your support as well so we set up a donation account for Andrea’s family. This money will go towards funeral expenses, medical expenses, and the cost of raising these three beautiful children without their mother.
Please take a moment to share your thoughts and memories about Andrea, Kyle, and their sweet girls in the comments section below. If you’d like to donate, you can enter your donation amount at the top of the page and you’ll be redirected to the Andrea Lemmon Fund PayPal account.
Thank you for your love and support!

Kyle,
We are so incredibly sorry for your loss. What an amazing woman you married. I feel so blessed to have been her visiting teaching companion for the time we lived in Springville and I can say she was the most dedicated person I had ever met when it came to service and the gospel. She was an amazing mother and I just adored her. We are praying for you guys and especially for your little girls.
Love,
Emily and David Ybarra

Kyle,
We love and miss Andrea tremendously. The two of you created a truly celestial home, and you will all enjoy that again someday. In the meantime, God has a plan for her, and for you and your daughters. Still, this is a shock in every sense of the word, and our hearts ache for the pain you are going through. We are praying hard that you and the girls can find at least some measure of comfort and peace as you face this next stage of life together. We hope you know how much you and your family are loved. God be with you.
Love, Kendall and Shelly

Love,

Kyle,
As we were sitting in Sunday School last week, I was thinking about Andrea’s lessons in the Kolob 7th ward. She was always so passionate and organized and I still have the outlines that she created for her lessons. You both set an amazing example for all of us and we are all sending love and prayers to you and your girls. You are an amazing person and we will continue to pray for you and the girls. Our prayer is that you will receive comfort during this difficult time.

Kyle,
You probably don’t remember us, but my family and I moved out of the ward about the time you guys moved in. I had the fortune of meeting your beautiful family a couple of times through the Burrs. I will always remember the sweet spirit that surrounded your family. Andrea will be so missed by all who knew her. But, I wanted you to know that even those of us who didn’t know her well, were touched by her commitment to family, her friendly demeanor and sweet smile. May our Heavenly Father be with you and your girls at this time.

Our hearts ache with yours. Our prayers are for you and your sweet, sweet girls who no doubt inherited Andrea’s infectious smile and warmth. Candace and I have been reflecting upon the last time we saw you, at the Anderson’s for the 4th a year ago. We wish we could be with you now to help and comfort you. Regardless, know of our love and support as it will only continue to grow. We’re grateful to know you and Andrea.

Kyle,
There just aren’t adequate words for these moments. It is remarkable that after all these years, I can still clearly hear Andrea’s voice and laugh every time I see a picture of her. So few people are so unforgettable.
My love and prayers to you and your three sweet, beautiful keepsakes of her.

I’ve known Andrea since our families came to the Tropicana Ward in Las Vegas many years ago. Times like these make us wish for the same perspective that God has, so these times of grief and loss and separation would be more bearable. Many hearts ache with loss right now. As Elder Wirthlin said, this is like the Friday when the Savior died, but Sunday with the glorious resurrection and reunion will come.
Know that there are prayers said for you and your family, immediate and extended even from people who have never met you. Love you.

Dear Kyle,
I knew Andrea as a freshman at BYU. We were in the same dorm hall together and the same ward. She was the Relief Society President and i was one of her counselors. I remember her always being so happy and upbeat. I am so so sorry for your loss. We will keep your family in our prayers.

Kyle,
Andrea was a bright light who left all of us too soon. We remember her warmth, bright smile, and sweet manner with fondness and regret that she was not with us longer. You have been in our thoughts and prayers since Monday morning—and will continue to be. May your girls be blessed with comfort and peace. Remember you are loved by MANY—and that we stand ready to help in and help. We wish we could be with you.
Love, Tom and Joni Brailsford, Tammy, Mike, Caryn, Kristin

Kyle -
Getting to know you, your wife, Andrea, and children was a joy for us during business school. Andrea was always a joy to talk with at different functions while we were in school. She was so kind to me and my family. As a family, we have been praying you and your extended family during this time. We love you and if there is anything we can do for you don’t hesitate to ask.
Sincerely, Ronell, Briawna, Palmer, Portia and Teya

Dear Kyle,
I loved living next door to Andrea in the dorms at BYU. She was so vibrant and fun and kind to everyone. I remember how excited she was when you two started dating. Your darling girls look just as beautiful as their mother. I am so sorry for your loss. My family and I are praying for you and your three little angels.

Kyle-
Saw the link thru Facebook and I was moved to action. We were on swim team together way back at Vaca high. I pray for your comfort and strength for your daughters at this time. God truly has a plan for you through this- so stay the course. God bless you all.
