Coleman Funeral Home of Southaven Mr. Gregory W. Andress, 68, passed away March 7, 2022, at Baptist Memorial Hospital Desoto. There are no services planned at this time. Coleman Funeral Home of Southaven is in charge of arrangements. Mr. Andress was born in Camrose, in Alberta, Canada, on October 14, 1953. He was known to be a one of a kind man and had an incredible sense of humor. He had the ability to light up the room when he walked in. His favorite hobby was sitting around a fire with all of his family and friends on his patio and playing music and enjoying time with each other. Mr. Andress especially enjoyed being a “Paw Paw,” and his grandchildren were his pride and joy. He was an incredibly hard worker throughout his life, often being called a “workaholic.” He also had a kind heart. He never missed a month donating money to St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital and the Shriners organization. His huge heart and personality will truly be missed by all who knew him. Mr. Andress is survived by his wife, Donna Andress of Horn Lake, MS; his daughter, Yvette (Brett) Gorman of Oklahoma City, OK; 5 sons, Ian (Kellie) Andress of Horn Lake, Kyle (Emily) Andress of Corning, NY, Cory Andress of Oakes, ND, Spencer Andress of Tunkhannock, PA, and Donovan (Marjorie) Andress of Jamestown, ND; his sister, Sandra (Frank) Shoemaker of Bay Springs, MS; and 5 grandchildren. Mr. Andress was preceded in death by his parents, William Andress and Willie Mae Andress. Online condolences may be left on the Tribute Wall at www.colemanfuneralhome.com.
