Andre’ Allen Arquette was born December 23, 1968, to William A and Mary C Arquette in
Potsdam New York, the youngest of six children. He was predeceased by his parents, oldest brother Robert Douglas Arquette, brother-in-law John Merrick Bunstone and nephew Merrick John Bunstone.
Andre’ graduated Potsdam High School in 1987 and shortly thereafter moved to Rochester, NY, he spent the rest of his life in the Rochester area. His incredible work ethic earned him praise from each of several employers including Morse Lumber and Lidestri Foods. Andre’ was an avid sports fan rooting for the Buffalo Bills, Montreal Canadiens and the New York Yankees. Those who knew him well can vouch for his seemingly endless supply of jerseys, hats and other team-related apparel. He was also an incredibly talented golfer who, although never taking a lesson, playing with used clubs and holding those clubs with an unorthodox grip ended most rounds with the lowest score, much to the chagrin of his playing partners.
Andre’ was blessed with two great loves in his life. His first was Debbie Derouin. Andre’ and Debbie were inseparable for many years and even after ending their romantic relationship remained the closest of friends until his passing. For the past six years Sheena Whaley, her three daughters and grandson, filled his days with love and joy.
Andre’ is survived by his brothers Rodney and John, sisters Karen and Jacqueline. Sister in laws Donna, Cindy and Elenore Arquette as well as nephews Mitch, Talon, Austin, Timothy and Hunter. A small private service will be arranged at a later date. In lieu of flowers the family requests that donations be made to the American Heart Association.
