Visitation will begin at 11 am, Saturday, May 17, 2025 at First Assembly of God Tallassee, followed by a Celebration of Life at 12 pm with Rev. Bobby Hornsby and Rev. Jason Wright officiating.

Drew was a bright light in the lives of his two young children, Alec Gantt and Kaston Webb, and his beautiful fiancée, Heaven, whom he loved wholeheartedly.

Drew lived life to the fullest, embracing every moment with joy and enthusiasm. He was a source of strength and inspiration to all who knew him, always ready with a smile and encouraging words. He had an unwavering love for his parents, step-parents, grandparents, in-laws, brothers, extended family, and friends. He cherished these relationships deeply and was a steadfast supporter to those he loved.

Recently, Drew had been accepted into a heavy machining program, an opportunity that filled him with excitement about the future he and Heaven were building together. He dreamed of creating a bright life for his family, filled with love, laughter, and adventure. His spirit of adventure, determination, and hope will remain with us, lighting the path for those who loved him.
