Andrew Jason Behm

Andrew Jason Behm passed away peacefully in Seattle, Washington after an eight month battle with Acute Myloid Lukemia on January 25, 2018. He was 34 years old. Andrew was born in Punxutawney, Pennsylvania on November 17, 1983. He was the third son to Wade and Roberta Behm. Andrew grew up in Wasilla, Alaska where he loved playing in the forest, sledding down the most dangerous hills he could find, and doing it with no fear. Riding his bike through the biggest puddle and just having fun. Andy as he liked to be called found himself becoming a father on September 23, 2009 to a handsome young boy. He later married that girl, Christina Campbell on June 21, 2014 and they had themselves a beautiful daughter on March 12, 2014. He was a nurturing father and an admirable husband, a true friend to anybody he met. His contagious laugh, and sense of humor will be remembered by all that knew him. Andy graduated from Burchell High School and off to the workforce he went. Bagging groceries at Carrs Quality Center, a cook at Burger King, a laborer for Sapp Construction, a farm hand at the Boyd's Farm, and then a produce worker at 3 Bears, Alaska. No matter the work in front of him, he worked with pride and dignity. No job was to dirty or to low for him. In his adult years Andy loved singing karaoke, spending time with his family and giving himself to the Lord. He was the first to give a helping hand, never shying away from helping one in need.
