Dear Chris,
I received the news from my brother John this weekend. It was extremely upsetting to hear of Andy's passing. My brother and I spent countless hours with Andy fishing at Cape May Point. He was fun to be around and gave my son and I countless tips on fishing. He will be missed by all that knew him. Our prayers and thoughts are with you and family.
