Andrew James Startin, lovingly known as AJ, passed away on January 15, 2025, at the age of 40 in Spokane, WA. Born on March 20, 1984, in Spokane, Andrew was a proud graduate of Mead High School and built a successful career as a Sales Manager at Arrotta's Automax.

AJ was known for his competitive spirit, compassionate heart, great sense of humor, and unshakable determination. He loved spending time with his family and friends. He cherished his four children—Carter, Destinie, Kiera, and Aaliyah. Whether playing golf, cheering for the Seahawks, or strategizing in fantasy football, AJ's passions brought joy to his life and those around him.

AJ's heart was kind and caring, he never judged others and always sought to help everyone he could. His love for family, including his mother Carrie, father Darrel, stepmother Joni, sister Lindsie and his children, were the core of who he was. AJ is survived by numerous grandparents, aunts, uncles, cousins, and his only grandchild Alex.

Memorial services will be held on Sunday, January 26th, at 3 PM at Turning Point Open Bible Church in North Spokane, WA. Family and friends are invited to honor his memory and share stories of his remarkable life.

Andrew will be deeply missed by all who knew him but will live on forever in the arms of Jesus and in the hearts of those who loved him.
