Andrew William Tainter, age 32, of Lac Courte Oreilles, WI, passed away peacefully Wednesday, January 1, 2025, at his home surrounded by his family.

Andrew was born May 14, 1992, in Duluth, MN the son of William Tainter and Lona Paull. He attended school in Hayward and graduated in 2010 then became a stay-at-home dad to Michael. Andrew’s favorite memories are watching 1980’s horror movies with his family and being out on the road, trucking with his father, all over the United States. This striked his interest and lifelong love of music. His hobbies included hanging out with his family and friends, crafting with paracord and playing X-Box online with friends. Andrew’s warm and loving demeanor brought him lifelong friends wherever he was. He found the good in everything and was always down for that extra special hug he possessed. Andrew met the love of his life Illy Anna in 2017. Being together brought out the best in him.
