Andrew Golkin Obituary
Knowing that Andrew H. Golkin had so many friends, his family planned a memorial service in the spacious second-floor ballroom of the Harmonie Club in Manhattan, which seats 400. Then more than 750 friends, schoolmates and co-workers showed up, overflowing the room and spilling so far down the staircase that loudspeakers were set up so they could hear the service.
"He had a special heart, and was a good listener, which made him very good at his job," said his mother, Janet, of her son's work as a vice president at Cantor Fitzgerald on the 105th floor of the World Trade Center. Only the Sunday night before the disaster, she and her husband, Gerald, and their daughter, Susan, had dinner with Andrew at their favorite neighborhood Italian restaurant, Parma, on the Upper East Side.
"It's some comfort to have had this lovely, joyous evening," his mother recalled. "He was planning his 31st birthday, Nov. 3. He was planning a large party, and he was planning on having a good time."

Andrew
Three weeks after 9/11, we honoured you at St Patrick´s Cathedral along with the eight others, all of you related to the Amex family. We cried, and were horrified, for your dad Jerry, who was a long term floor trader and popular presence on the Exchange trading floor, in the aftermath of 9/11.
And now, on July 3rd, 2023, your dad has passed. We who worked with him for various parts of various decades, liked him, respected him, enjoyed him , and will miss him . I was one of many who flourished under his leadership . May your memory Andrew , and now that of your dad Gerald, be for a blessing .
In Loving Memory and Appreciation for what your dad taught me,
I´m sorry for your family´s loss
Sincerely
Jeff Gottlieb

I saw him on the wall in the 9/11 memorial. He was the only person who I remembered from the wall and wanted to know more about him. I´m so sorry for your loss, and even tho I know it was many years ago, I´m sure y´all still miss him. He seemed like a great guy!

Every year since then tragedy in think of Andy, but this is the first time I read where the service was held. The Harmonie Club was where Camp Winnebago held its Winter Reunion for many years. Peace! Dad is smiling.

Think of him often and tell my kids about him.

I used to read a blog many years ago where the writer would honor his friend each year on this day. Still so many years later every year I go read about this man, who I never met but think of because he was loved. 20 years later I still pray for him and those who loved him on this day.

We are here today, just south of London, remembering all those who lost their lives on 11th September 2001.
We picked a name at random to remember and it was Andrew H.Golkin. Having read all the comments below, he sounds like a gentleman who anyone would have loved to count as a friend.
Rest in peace, Andy, you are not forgotten / by your family, your friends, and by people like us, on the other side of the world.
With kind regards, and sincere condolences, from the Wright family.

I think about my student Andy often--many times a year. It has been a long time since he passed, but he is still in my heart. Today on the anniversary of his death I am thinking about the contributions he would have made; we so need people with open hearts these days, which seem in short supply. Such sweet memories of a wonderful person.

Peace, Andy.

Andy, we don't know each other personally, only through Pierre's blog called MetroDad. Since I've stumbled upon the website, I bookmarked it and reading all the entries about you, I know that you are loved by every one and how incredibly amazing of a person you are. This connection I had just grew ever since that I just randomly visit blogs to read entries of people sharing their memories with their loved ones and how much they miss them. You are missed by all who knew you. RIP.

From the first day I met you at summer camp I don't recall a time when you were not smiling. And you smiled with your whole face, and it was infectious when you did. You're sorely, admiringly missed, my friend. Our friend our dear dear Andy.

I just read Derek's message. I remember Andy at least once a week, as I teach my current students. I want his family to know that he is not forgotten--I still remember his warmth and how much fun he was to work with as a high school student. Still alive in my heart.
Rest in Peace, Andy

I went to visit the 911 Memorial site this past weekend to find Andrew's name and the name of the husband of a childhood friend who was on Flight 11. Words cannot express the sorrow I still feel about their loss, especially after the 26 children and their teachers killed the day before in Newtown.

I just spoke at Fieldston School at the assembly to honor victims of 9/11. There were four speakers, and I chose to talk about Andy. I talked about his living from his heart, about how he reached out to me when I first started working at Riverdale country School, how much fun we had together when I was helping him with college placement. We had lost touch when he was killed, but I had mentioned him often over the years as a student who had an innate sense of "the other fellow first," Riverdale's old motto. Andy was not the best academic student in his class, but he was the one that people depended on and was a great, great friend and a leader of his peers. Every teacher has a few students she always remembers; Andy was one of these for me. Tragically I only learned of his success at Cantor Fitzgerald when I read his obituary in the New York Times. The grief of that moment has stuck with me, and helped me to be a more caring person, to practice peace as an antidote to violence. Many students came up to me after today's assembly to ask me about Andy, and thank me for sharing my thoughts about him. I want his family to know that he is still very much alive in my heart, and that today 700 students at Fieldston School thought about him.

To the Golkin family-
I knew Andy when we were young kids. Much to the chagrin of our neighbors, we played dodge ball and many other loud sports in the hallway of our building with our friends Robert and David D. I want you to know, that while I had not seen Andrew in many years before 9/11. I remember him fondly and have listened for his name at each of the 9/11 Anniversaries. He was a great guy and I share in your loss and grief.

Andy, On the 10th Anniversary of 9/11, that day remains as vivid now as it did a decade ago. I chose this year that I did not wish to watch the hype and videos on television and the internet. I don't need a reminder of what it was like that day. Instead I have chosen to solemnly remember you and all of those who left us, as well as those of us who were left behind to deal with the aftermath. I continue to believe that you watch over me and will do so until I see you again.

Andrew: I never had the pleasure of meeting you. From everything I have read about you, there was nothing not to like. Tomorrow will be the 10 year anniversary of the day that change America forever. I walked today in a 9/11 Unity Run in memorial of yourself. We were told to look up in the sky as we walked and remember that horrible day. That I did, and I hope you were looking down on me. I will never forget that day and I hold a special place in my heart for you, someone that I never met, but feel like I have a connection with now forever! You are gone but not forgotten.

Hi Andy, Mr. & Mrs Golkin, and Susan. It does not seem possible that it has been 6 years now since the attacks. It seems like yesterday. So much has changed, and yet the important things in life remain the same: faith, hope, and love. Alan Jackson pegged everything correctly in his song "Where Were You When the World Stopped Turning (On that September Day)." Andy, you are still very missed, and you have a great following of friends and family that have many wonderful memories of you. The Golkin family remains in my thoughts every day during the year, and I just want to say that my heart goes out to them and all the families of the victims of 9/11. Andy, you are a very special man, I consider you to be my guardian angel. Please continue to watch over us on Earth as we feebly continue to try to make sense of that which can not be understood. Regards, Greg Avery, Hobart Class of '92

As I cross-stitched your name on the memorial that I am doing for all of the victims, I prayed for you and your family. Please know that your death was not in vain. We will always remember. God Bless.

Hi Andy, On the 5th anniversary of the September 11th attacks, you are, as always, foremost on my mind and in my heart and prayers. Each year, I write a message here and say that the pain lessens to some degree, and while that is true, the pain never completely goes away; you are always remembered and thought of by me, not just on September 11th, but every day. I lost my father this past May to brain cancer. I like to think that by now, you and he have met each other and are together watching over us. Your Mom and Dad and Susan continue to be in my thoughts as well. Greg

I'm thinking of you today, andy. I wish I could say that I knew you well. I didn't. we had many mutual friends and I remember seeing and chatting with you at parties and dinners. but I'm here today because I wanted everyone to know that even such brief contact with you left a mark on me. you were that special. your intelligent smile, your kind eyes.....I wish I could look across a crowded room and see them again.
you aren't forgotten, andy. not by me and not by anyone who was blessed to know you.....

Yesterday was the fourth anniversary of 9/11. Andy, I knew your sister in college at Middlebury. I have no doubt that you were as funny, sensitive, kind and caring as she was. I hurt for her and for your parents whom I met once when they came to take Susan out one night. You live on in those who remember you and in those who know your family. God bless.

Hi Andy,
Another year has come and gone, 4 years now since that Tuesday morning that changed our lives forever. Still, not a day goes by that I don't think about you, about all the people we lost that day, and about all the the people who still are here dealing with the devestation and loss. Four years ago at this time, our country saw a surge of Patriotism like we had not seen since we had been born. Today, the country is being torn apart by the destruction and loss of lives caused by Hurricane Katrina, finger pointing, trying to place blame. The same can be said of the 9/11 investigations--who was responsible for allowing 9/11 to happen, who should have seen the signs? I guess we all go through those moments when we want to be able to attribute the blame--either upon ourselves or someone else. What I have come away with, four years later, is that it is futile and a waste of energy to try to point the finger or say that anyone should have known or should have done something differently. What happened, has happened. I prefer to reflect, today, and every day now, upon the good memeories of you and the happy times people talk about spending with their family and friends. I was lost in sadness for quite some time after 9/11, but I am finally at a point of acceptance and prefer to turn what is truly a nightmare into something more peaceful and reflective. I was glad to see that NY City had a memorial this morning at the WTC site in which the siblings of those lost in the WTC were able to read the names of their brothers and sisters. The healing never stops. I had the good fortune this past May, of meeting a fireman who was at the WTC for many months after the towers fell, working on search, recovery, and clean up. He brought many momentos of items found at the sight, a woman's shoe, an office desk chair, a huge chunk of glass from one of the upper windows of the North Tower... and photos for people to look at. It was amazing to hear the stories he had to tell. Some stories he said he can't tell because they are too terrible to relive. But you can see how the events of that day are not forgotten, and reach every sector of this country.
Today, on the 4th Anniversary of 9/11, I say a prayer for your parents and sister, and as always am thinking of you, Andy. I think of you as my guardian angel, and I feel your presence especially when I am walking the campus at Hobart College.

Andy, I wound up stumbling on this site and I am so glad to have read all of the many wonderful memories everyone shared. I will never forget our car rides back from the beach, where you had me in hysterics the whole way home. I think about you often and I know Shary does too. He often tells me stories about you. I was so honored to spend the anniversary of 9/11 with your parents and Susan. Of course, you had us laughing till the tears came spilling down. We miss you tons, but it’s a comfort to think that you are above laughing and smiling down on us. p.s. I hope you approve of the ski pants!!

Hi Andy,
Here it is, 3 years after 9/11, and still hard to believe that day happened, but here we are.....I think of you every day, but this week has had additional importance, for obvious reasons. I got a very nice card in the mail from your mother, which I keep on the wall beside your memorial picture from Hobart College. I hope that your family continues to heal and do well, I think of them every day too : ) Be at peace, Andy, and please continue to watch over us : )

I did not know Andy personally but spoke to him many times on the phone when he would call the offices of Merrill Lynch to speak to his good friend, Shary Moalemzadeh. We had many conversations and he always made me laugh.
I was deeply saddened to learn he was a victim of the 9/11 attacks. My deepest sympathies go out to his family. He was a wonderful person and I'm glad I had to chance to know him, although we never met.
God bless..........

To his mother,
I know that even though people say time heals all, I know as a mother myself that the hurt would never go away. I do believe that your children are never suppose to pass before we do. He is in a better place now and I pray for you along with all the other suffering family members that lost loved ones. Believe that you're a better person for knowing and loving him. You are special and I will think of you and your family on this day. God bless you and keep you safe.

Hi Andy. I just watched as they read your name at the memorial service this morning. It is still shocking to me to see your name alongside all the others. Even two years later it doesn't seem possible that someone with your depth of spirit is gone. And each time I see your picture, those eyes of yours stare out at me, making it all the more unbelievable.
We had lost touch in the years before you died but I think of you so often now. I truly hope that you are in a better place and that you are looking out for all of us down here with those amazing eyes. If I can think of you as an angel, it makes me feel better and safer. I wonder, does Prada make angel wings??

On this, the second anniversary of the terrorist attacks that took Andy and so many good people from us, I can honestly say that the healing process has helped, and I feel more at peace with what happened. However, I still think of you every day, Andy, and my thoughts and prayers continue to go out to your parents, your sister, and all of your family and friends.

It is said that almost every American had a "connection" with a victim of the 9/11 disaster, but I knew of none...until I read the list. Seeing Andy's name sent a jolt through my body, and his smile flashed through my mind. How much his smile was like his Mom's! I haven't seen the Golkin's in years, but the time spent at Camp Winnebago will stay in my memory forever.
December 31, 2002
Andy, we loved you so much. The air is quite, our hearts are empty. My eyes are dry, but they still cry.
I miss your smile, your laughter. You were the sun, illuminating all around you.
I wish you were still here; I know God loves you Andy. I know God cherishes having you with Him. But I wish you were still with us.

I didn't personally know Andrew, but a good friend of mine who lives near me in Geneva, NY was friends w/ Andrew at Hobart College (located here in Geneva, NY) My friend, Greg Avery, was deeply saddened to hear of Andrews tragic and senseless murder. I was able to visit the World Trade Center site in mid September this year, just after the 1 year anniversary. I left a small american flag w/ Andrew's name on it on the fence that surrounds the area. To his friends and family: please know that you are in our thoughts and prayers. God Bless.

I met Andrew only a few times, but his father, Gerry, has been a colleague since I started on the AMEX a decade ago. Their relationship reminded me of that which I share with my father. Family has always been the highest priority to me, which is how I was raised, and the Golkin's share this belief as well. I'd be hard pressed to find a father more proud of his son, sharing stories on Monday about another great weekend together. I wish the Golkin's my heartfelt sorrow on this tragic anniversary, but know their strength lies in their unity. May God bless you, and remember the good times you shared together each day. I leave you in peace.

I knew Andy for a year before the attacks, if you knew him for a second, you would have been a lucky and fortunate person. To have known him for that long has been the greatest gift god has ever given to me. He was like NO ONE I've ever known and will remain always in our hearts as that special person who touched every person he came across. Not a day goes by when I don't hear his voice or think about the fun we had.
Mr. and Mrs. Golkin, susan....his friends are your extended family.

To Andrews family and friends, I am so sorry for your loss. I will be including you in my prayers.

It has now been 11 months since the events of September 11. I can honestly say that not a single day has passed that I have not thought about Andrew's family and friends and hoped that they are doing well and healing in the face of this loss. I also think of you, Andrew, and I pray that you are at peace. A lot has changed since we were in college at Hobart and William Smith. There's a lot that doesn't make sense to me, but I do firmly believe that the majority of us are good people who will continue to live life to the fullest and love one another. In the midst of loss of life that occurred that September day, we have all taken a closer look at what is really important, and for that, the world is a better place.

Andy was probably the best worst golfer I've ever played with.

I knew Andy only a short time but enough to know how much fun, positive and beautiful he was. I will never forget how much he laughed from the Kings of Comedy, I will never forget lunch at the Boat House Café, I will never forget drinks on top of the Peninsula Hotel, and I will never forget those gorgeous bright blue eyes.
We might grow old, but Andy will forever stay young,and cheerful in our memories.

Dear Andy,
You are missed by all who knew you.
I wish that I spent more time with you over the last few years. I can vividly remember the summer of 1987. I used to pick you up (in my mom's car) from you construction job to go to the gym. You were always so excited for me to arrive. Always smiling. All we wanted to do was to get bigger. Over the last 5 years, all we wanted to do was get smaller.
I miss Andy but we are all better people for the time that we shared with him. My thoughts are with his family and closest friends.

We miss you, Andy.

I did not know Andrew, but I do know Susan. She is an incredibly lovely person and I cannot imagine her pain with the loss of her beloved brother. I have never seen a sister love a sibling as much as Susan. Whenever she spoke about Andrew, there was such pride in her face. I send all of my thoughts to Susan and her family. I hope the following quote sends some comfort:
"To Live in the Hearts of those left behind, is not to Die".

I played football with Andy in high school. I was only a sophomore on the team when Andy was a senior. However, despite the difference in age and experience Andy treated me as an equal member of the team. I have little trouble remembering him as an excellent teammate on the field and a good friend off of it.
Andy will be sorely missed by all of his teammates and friends from high school and college.

Andy was one of earliest friends, way back when we were both in elementary school 2(or was it 2?) grades apart and living in the same building. I can only imagine how many neighbors we annoyed as we ran around the halls causing whatever trouble we were up to each day. My deepest thoughts go out to his friends and family. He will be missed.

I taught Andrew at Riverdale Country School (and also Susan) and remember him so well as such a lively and lovely boy, and a talented actor. I was very very sad when I heard he was a victim of the attack and wanted to send the family my deepest sympathy for such a loss. I feel sad about Andrew whenever anyone mentions September 11th.

What beautiful heart capturing eyes Andrew has in this picture you have shared with us. He must have captured hearts and drawn them into his heart with his warmth and friendliness. May his life and love live on in those who love him. Our hearts cry with you in your loss of Andrew.
America Cries
We see your sorrow-
and our hearts cry....
We can not erase your pain
but you do not have to face the anguish alone-for we-
-the American people-
are beside you.
We so desperately want to have the touch that brings you comfort,
the strength that gives you courage,
and the words to lighten your spirits.
And when we are left speechless
may the silence of our nation weave love into your hearts
to ease your sorrow.
May you find healing through our nation's strength as we-
-the American people-
face this difficult time together. Our hearts are with you. Teresa Jahn

I worked with Andrew's sister, Susan, for more than two years. But in all of that time, neither of us ever realized that her brother, Andrew, was a former classmate and very good friend of my daughter, Heather. Nor, for that matter, did I realize that Andrew had been lost in the attack.
It all became clear on the evening of her 30th birthday party which my wife and I hosted at our home. In lieu of gifts, Heather asked that donations be made in the names of four friends who were lost in the World Trade Center attack - one of whom was Andrew Golkin.
The attack had shaken Heather all the more since her husband, Tom, also worked at the World Trade Center. As fate would have it, he was late for work that day.
Susan and family, please know that our thoughts continue to be with you and your family.
With love and great sympathy,
The O'Neill and Ragland families of Riverside, Connecticut.

As a college friend of Andrew's, I am deeply sadden. As an African-American I am even more so. There was not a finer American, friend and comrade one could look for support, guidance, and comfort, than Andrew Golkin.
My condolences to his family for their loss, one of the finest men I have known. My tenure as Hobart College student president was partly because of this open and wonderful guy, whom I miss greatly.
