He was born in Springville, Indiana, to Claude and Bernadine (Byers) Andis on December 23, 1938. He attended school in Springville and graduated from Oolitic High School in 1957. His passions were hunting, basketball, motorcycles, old cars and spending time with his buddies, family, and cousins.

After his service commitment they returned to Indiana and then moved to Denver, Colorado where they had one daughter, Lorie Beth (Andis) Bruehl.
