Andrew Tillotson will celebrate his Bar Mitzvah on Saturday, April 1, 2023, joined by his proud parents Amy and Steven Sahr and Leif Tillotson. Andrew is the grandson of Leslie and Laura Sahr and Marcia Gary of Mesa and Sue and Lee Tillotson of Bakersfield, VT.

 

Andrew is currently in the seventh grade and enjoys watching TV and movies, playing video games, writing stories, and going to the theatre (especially when it is to see musicals). He also loves spending time with his cat, Cosima, and his dog, Merlin.

 

For his Bar Mitzvah Project, Andrew volunteered his time at the Paz de Cristo Outreach Center, located in Mesa, where he helped to prepare and serve food to the homeless and/or food insecure residents in the area.

 

Mazel tov, Andrew!
