I have a lot of fond childhood memories of Uncle Andy. He definitely had a great sence of humor. Loved performing his famous eye trick . Im sure we all can relate to that. Brought smiles to all our little faces. May the Murphy family find peace knowing he is resting in internal peace. Made whole with no more pain. God bless. My sincere condolences to you all
