Andrew P. Kern, born on October 6, 1978, in Philadelphia, PA, passed away unexpectedly on December 3, 2025, at the age of 47. He was a beloved son, a devoted father, and a cherished brother, who lit up the lives of all who knew him with his warmth, humor, and passion for life.

Andrew is survived by his treasured daughter, Danielle Kern, who was often the center of his world. He leaves behind a loving family that includes his siblings Larry Kern (Chrissy), Missy Williams (Bob), Janice Trimbur (David), and Trina Kern (Jim). Andrew's legacy continues through his nieces and nephews: Nathan, Natalie, Ryne, Evan, Seth, Grace, Hope, Faith, John, Aaron, and Brett, as well as many aunts, uncles, cousins, and dear friends who will forever hold him in their hearts. Andrew is preceded in death by his loving parents, Lawrence and Margaret Kern and grandparents Frederick and Matilda Kern and William and Catherine Schwark, who will surely welcome him with open arms.

Andrew was happiest when surrounded by family and friends, often indulging in his passions-whether it was playing video games with Danielle, fishing, hunting, or cooking up a storm. A true Philadelphia sports fan, he passionately supported the Eagles, infusing every game with his spirited enthusiasm.

Family and friends are invited to celebrate Andrew's life and legacy at the Immaculate Heart of Mary Church. A public viewing will be held on December 12, 2025, starting at 9:00 AM, followed by a Mass at 11:00 AM. Interment is Private.

Together we will gather to honor the joyous memories Andrew created and the love he so generously shared with everyone fortunate enough to know him.Andrew's spirit will forever resonate in our hearts. May he rest in peace.
