My name is Kyle Dowdle , I live in Visalia Ca the town that the family ranched near before homesteading near "Dowdle canyon" in the Tucson area.. my grandfather was David Robert Dowdle, brother of AC senior. I too am a historian and coin collector. I´m trying to keep the family history research going.. I´m very grateful for the work cousin Andrew put into it. My father David Robert 2nd passed in Jan of `22.

I so enjoyed talking Arizona history with Andy when I worked downtown. And his work on court states was fantastic. He was brilliant and kind, and a kindred spirit in his interest in the story of Arizona, especially Tucson. Great respect to Andy and deep sympathies to his family and friends.

Andrew was a kind, gentle and thoughtful man that I enjoyed working with for many years in Superior Court. My condolences to his family.

I fondly remember Andrew as a quiet, but joyful classmate. Rest in peace my friend

I knew Andy from our work on the Dillinger program in downtown Tucson. His efforts to bring accurate history to this event made it a wonderful and enlightening event He was a joy to work with. I will miss him.

We will miss our family historian. He was an encouragement to all!

The Salpointe Catholic High School community extends deepest sympathy to Andrew's family and friends. You are in our prayers at this difficult time.

Andy was a wonderful historian and so enthusiastic about Tucson and Arizona history. He was a pleasure to spend time with. My condolences to his family.

Andy will be missed by all who worked with him in our respective research fields. We often spent hours together in the medical school library stacks at the University of Arizona. RIP Andy.
