Charlotte Jo (Dyer) Occhipinti
Charlotte Jo (Dyer) Occhipinti was born in September 1938 at Knoxville, TN, and died at age 86 years old on May 12, 2025 at Pensacola, FL.
I was Andy's 2nd & final wife. This site will not let me put in dates of marriage. Lissa was his first wife & they had 2 boys together. Our marriage was 03-07-1986 & it will always be one of the most special days of my life. Andy had a heart of gold & always helped anyone in need. He raised my 3 children as his own; so much that my two girls call him Daddy to this day. Andy loved the outdoors. Fishing & treasure hunting were his favorite pastimes. He grew up poor with his 5 siblings & parents in a one room house with no plumbing in Blanco, TX. It was there he learned at an early age to hunt for squirrel, rabbit, anything to help with bringing food into the home. For a time, Andy took care of his grandmother (at age 8) and she taught him how to cook. He could cook better than anyone I knew & completely from scratch. He taught me everything I now know. Andy's long blonde hair, mustache & extremely athletic build caused many people to call him by the nickname "Hulk" after the wrestler Hulk Hogan. Andy's biceps measured at 21 3/4". He was very muscular. I never saw a child who did not love Andy & vise versa. He would have unyielding patience when teaching one to "cast a line" and enjoyed spoiling all children with a treat or a dollar bill. God received an angel on that Feb 15th. He wasn't perfect, but he was & still is the love of my life.
