Andrew Gagnon

On Friday, February 4, 2022 I was in my sewing room listening to the radio when the news was announced about Andrew Gagnon´s skiing accident. Since we had just met him in a doctor´s appointment four days previous, I was shocked and thought, "Could there be another Andrew Gagnon in the valley?" I didn´t really think so, and our family was shocked that day. He was the same age as our son who was his patient.

Dr. Gagnon was such a light in the darkest part of my life. Dr. Gagnon saved my partner Jared´s life just this August. Without him I´m not sure that he would have survived. We have seen him every week pretty much since August 11th and he was such a calming presence so generous with his time and listening to our questions. We are so saddened by this loss. So sorry to his family, friends, and colleagues for this loss of light in their lives. May you find comfort at this time.

I'm so sorry for your loss. Andrew went to school with my children Becky (same grade) and Patrick. He was a neat kid. I'm glad to learn about what wonderful things he did with his life. He will be missed.

Dr. Gagnon was my mother's transplant surgeon when she received her new liver 2 years ago. Our family will be forever grateful for his gifted work and his positive energy. His happy and caring disposition gave us hope and lightened our hearts through a very difficult time. I know there are hundreds if not thousands of people who can say the same from working with him. He will truly missed but his spirit will live on through all of the people he touched. Thank you, Dr. Gagnon. Love and...

Dr. Gagnon seemed like a great man when we met him 10 days ago. I am so sorry for our loss.

As patients, we are typically forced to choose a doctor with ability rather than bedside manner. Dr. Gagnon was the ultimate example of both....an incredibly kind, down to earth man, AND a highly skilled surgeon. When he became my husbands doctor, I felt like we'd known him forever. What a great guy and what an unbelievable loss for the medical community. Our heartfelt blessings to his family as they learn to navigate life without him. May God watch over you and give you strength. Thank you...

He helped save my mother's life by transplanting her new healthy liver. You will never be forgotten. My condolences to the family and friends of Dr. Gagnon.

We only just met this past summer as my husband and I became neighbors of Andrew, Candace and their precious kiddos. However, when i met Andrew, it felt as if i had known him a lifetime. Such a joy to talk to. Always willing to help. We will miss you, Andrew, but will do everything to help Candace and your precious children.

Dr. Gagnon performed the surgery that saved my life. I didn´t know how I was going to take care of my family and household. It has been a little over two years since my surgery, and I am a healthy product of his work. I will be eternally thankful that I have the opportunity to be here. What an amazing human and soul. Please god, the universe, or whomever is responsible for our existence watch over his sweet family. May you bring them comfort, joy, warmth, and dissolve their pain, just...
