Celebrating Andrea Grace Soter-Simonson
Offering Support for families challenged by cancer
It is our mission to help families with the challenges of cancer. On June 6, 2008, our beloved daughter, wife, sister and mother went to join the Lord, passing away in her home at peace, comfortable, and surrounded by her children, family and friends. Andrea succumbed to her illness after a courageous six-year battle with ovarian cancer. Andrea heroically fought her illness, often defying the experts and odds while living her life during this time without complaint or apparent debilitation, and with strength, dignity and grace.
It is with great honor that we offer AGSS Memorial Foundation services including a list of resources for families dealing with the challenges of cancer. Andrea is survived by Clif Simonson, her husband of 16 years, and children Christian 8, and Olivia 14.
