Woo was a woman with a heart as big as her smile.

Andrea Michelle Tutwiler, affectionately known by those who loved her as "Woo," was born on February 17, 1985, in Jacksonville, Florida. On August 13, 2026, Andrea peacefully departed this earthly life, leaving behind a beautiful legacy of love, faith, strength, and memories that will forever live in the hearts of everyone who knew and loved her.

Woo was a woman with a heart as big as her smile. She was known for the unconditional love she had for her family, especially her only child, Nathaniel B. Criswell Jr., affectionately known as Nate Nate. Her son was one of the greatest loves of her life, and she took tremendous pride in being his mother.

Family was always at the center of Woo's heart. She treasured every moment spent surrounded by the people she loved. She enjoyed cooking, going to church, spending time with family and friends, and simply making memories with the people who meant the most to her. Her faith in God was an important part of who she was, and her love for the Lord remained a source of strength throughout her life.

Woo was also a proud CNA, a role that reflected the caring and compassionate heart she carried everywhere she went. She had a natural desire to help others and make a difference in the lives of those around her.

Those who knew Woo will forever remember her for her beautiful, unforgettable smile, her loving spirit, her determination, and her love for life. She had a way of bringing warmth into a room and making the people around her feel loved.

Although Woo faced illness, she never allowed it to define her or take away the person she was. She continued to live, love, smile, laugh, and make memories. She chose to embrace life and the people she loved.

She lived a beautiful life, and her strength will continue to inspire everyone she leaves behind. Andrea leaves to cherish her precious memory her beloved son, Nathaniel B. Criswell Jr. (Nate Nate); her parents, Paul Tutwiler and Lawanda Howell; the Tutwiler, Howell, and Green families; and a host of loving family members, friends, and all those whose lives were touched by her beautiful spirit.

Though our hearts are broken by her absence, we find comfort knowing that Woo's love did not leave with her. It remains in every smile, every family gathering, every meal prepared with love, every memory shared, and most importantly, in the heart of the son she loved so deeply.

Rest peacefully, Woo. Your beautiful smile will never be forgotten, your love will never fade, and your legacy will live forever in the hearts of those who were blessed to know you.

May you rest in the loving arms of God.
