Andrew J. Mohr

With heavy hearts and fond memories, we announce that Andrew J. Mohr, age 59, passed away peacefully on August 20, 2026, surrounded by his loving family after a short illness.

He was born on September 10, 1966, in Salamanca, New York, to the late Donald Mohr and Carolyn Kenjockety Murphy.

Today, I stand here trying to find the words to say goodbye to my dad, and honestly, I don’t know if there are enough words in the world to describe what he meant to me and to all of us.

My dad was one of the best people in the entire world. He was kind to so many people, and he was the kind of person who would do anything for anyone. He had a heart that was bigger than he probably ever realized, and he left an impact on so many lives simply by being himself. 

Most of all, he loved his children and grandchildren with everything he had. We were his world, and he did everything he could to give us a good life. He wasn’t perfect—none of us are—but he tried. He showed up. He loved us. He did the best he could with what he had, and for that, I will always be grateful. 

My dad was also the person who gave us our sense of humor. He could make us laugh when we probably didn’t feel like laughing. He had a way of making ordinary moments into memories that we will carry forever. So many of the stories we tell about him will probably begin with us laughing through our tears. 

He was the one parent who stayed. He was there for all of us, and that meant more than he could ever know. He was our dad, our protector, our comedian, and one of the people we could always count on. 

And now, somehow, we’re supposed to learn how to live in a world without him. I don’t know how to do that yet. 

He left us far too soon. It isn’t fair. He had so much more life to live, so many more jokes to tell, so many more holidays and birthdays to celebrate, and so many more memories he was supposed to make with his children and grandchildren. 

There are so many things I wish I could tell him. I wish I could tell him one more time how much I love him. I wish I could hug him one more time. I wish I could hear his voice, hear his laugh, and watch him make us laugh like only Dad could. 

But although he is gone, the love he gave us isn’t gone. 

He lives on in every one of his children. He lives on in his grandchildren. He lives on in the stories we tell, the laughter we share, the memories we hold onto, and in the parts of him that each of us carries forward. 

When we laugh the way he taught us to laugh, he’s there. 

When we help someone because that’s what he would have done, he’s there. 

When his grandchildren grow up and hear stories about the man their Papa was, he’ll be there. 

And when we miss him—and we will miss him terribly—we can remind ourselves that we were lucky enough to have someone worth missing this much. 

Dad, you were loved more than words can ever express. You gave us so much of yourself, and you gave us memories that we will hold onto for the rest of our lives. 

I hope you knew how much you meant to us. I hope you knew how proud we were to call you Husband, Dad and Papa. 

You weren’t supposed to leave us yet. There was so much more you were supposed to do. But even though your time with us was cut far too short, the love you left behind will last forever. 

We will carry you with us for the rest of our lives. 

And no matter how many years pass, there will always be a piece of us that is looking for you, laughing at your jokes, telling your stories, visiting your "FISHING IN ERIE PA" Facebook page and wishing you were here.

In addition to his parents, Andrew is preceded in death by his grandchildren, Zander and Colin, and his siblings, Kelly Ugino, Paul Mohr, and Todd Mohr.

He leaves behind to cherish his memory his wife, Shannon (Luke) Mohr; his children, Nikki Mohr and her children Bray, Aria, and Everly; Brandi (Cody) Killian and their children Kara, Brady, and Iris; Bret Mohr; Caleb Mohr and his children Xoe and Quinlan, and Zach Mohr, and Zaira Mohr; step-children, Austin, Megan and Sera; and step-grandchildren, Lily, Sophia, Clayton, Leigha, and James. He is further survived by his siblings, Donna Kenjockety, Beth Pamula, and Rebecca Mohr and many nieces, nephews and cousins.

Family are invited to call at Burton Quinn Scott Cremation & Funeral Services Inc. Downtown, 602 W 10th St., on Wednesday, August 26, 2026, from 11:00 a.m. until a 1:00 p.m. Time of Sharing. Burial in Wintergreen Gorge Cemetery.

The world may have lost an incredible man, but we will never lose our dad.

The Mop Machine Man will live on forever.

I love you, Dad. Until we meet again.
