Born in Derby, to Keith A. Drewes of Orange Park, Fla., and Diane Hannan of Seymour, Drewes was known for her "huge heart," and cheering on her favorite football teams.
Drewes and her son, Ryan, moved to South Carolina four years ago, she started building a life of amazing friends and family. Her huge heart and love of animals led her to work at Meadowlawn Animal Services.
She enjoyed football and cheered on the Pittsburg Steelers and Clemson Tigers. Drewes also loved her cars, especially “Sophie” her pink and black mustang. She was always under a car getting greasy. She was proud of her Mustang clubs and friends.
She was closely associated with the Axemen M/C SC1, which Nick Norris, her longtime boyfriend was an associate member, who also perished in the accident.
Drewes is survived by her son, Ryan Matthew Franz of Conway, S.C., and step-parents Sabina Drewes of Orange Park, Fla., and Chris Hannan of Seymour, her three brothers Hunter Drewes, Tyler Drewes both of Orange Park, Fla., and Sean Hannan of Seymour.
