My husband bowled with Andy a few years ago so I had the pleasure of meeting him. During our conversations we soon found out that Andy worked and knew my dad, Robert Wilson, who also worked at Cat. Andy was a funny, loving guy. He was always talking about his wife and his grandson. My condolences to his family. He was a great man! God always seems to take the best to soon. My father, Robert Wilson, passed away May 2009. I am sure he will be there to greet Andy and show him the ways through Heavens gates. Prayers are with you.
