To Mrs. Calia & Family,
I had the privilege of working with Andrew, "Andy" for more than 15 years at the Brooklyn District Attorney's Office. His passing, all too tragic and too soon, was recognized and remembered throughout the office earlier today. Please accept my condolences.

"Let us not look for you only in memory, where we would grow lonely without you. You would want us to find you in presence, beside us when beauty brightens, when kindness glows and music echoes eternal tones." (John O'Donohue)
