Andrew BEAN

I met Andy through Spice and working for BT at the time. He was a lovely guy and full of life. May he rest in peace. Tina

Firstly, sorry for your loss. I knew of him and was led to believe Andy was a bit of a character - larger than life. Very sorry to read this news. Deepest condolences to all those who had the privilege to know him. Vina

My sincere condolences to Andys friends and family. I had lost touch several years ago sadly. I met Andy in SPICE. Andy was such a personality. A wonderful character, funny, kind, generous. A total party animal in a responsible way. His parties were the best. Had some great laughs and adventures with him. The world is a duller place without him. I am so sad to have missed the funeral. Hopefully we can gather some people together and set off some fireworks in his memory and remember him. RIP...

I knew Andy through SPICE club and along with my sister and husband had some great times - his annual firework parties were legendary! One year he invited me and Adrian down to his home town to take part in the annual carnival, which was Viking-themed that year; what fun we had! Although we sadly lost touch over the last few years, I will always have fond memories of our friendship.

My sincere condolences to Andy´s friends and family. I first met Andy through Spice, an outdoor adventure club. It would be fair to say that I may not have met Paul my husband of 20 years is it has not been for Andy. He introduced me to a mutual friend, Adrian Dale, whom later introduced me to Paul. I will remember him always as the life and soul of any party. We are in Australia now so will raise a toast to Andy. Cheers buddy!

So saddened to hear of Andys death, especially after I missed a call from him a few months ago I will remember him as a really fun person! And there will alot fun around in heaven now Rest peaceful Andy

Passing on my condolences to Andy's family at this sad time. I first met Andy through SPICE and we became friends, so much so that he ended up being my Best Man at my wedding nearly 20 years ago now. Sadly we lost touch over time as we took different paths, but will always remember the good times and the traditional annual fireworks parties he had amongst other things. I wished we had stayed in touch more. I can't attend the ceremony, but I will be thinking of him. All the best.
