Andy was born May 14, 1938 in Hominy, Oklahoma to James Willard Decker and Nannie Josephine (Carver) Decker. Andy grew up in Hominy, Oklahoma and graduated from Hominy High School. After high school Andy worked as a butcher in local grocery stores. He eventually owned and operated a grocery store in Collinsville, OK. After retiring from the retail industry, Andy became a long-haul truck driver and worked for various trucking companies always looking forward to getting to travel. He loved seeing different parts of the US and meeting people from all over the nation. Andy retired from truck driving and became a pilot car driver for oversize loads. This presented him with a new challenge while still allowing him to see the country.
