Andrew Hebenton

I WAS ONLY A FRIEND OF ANDY'S FOR AROUND 25 YEARS. LIKE MOST PEOPLE THAT KNEW HIM,I KNEW RIGHT AWAY THAT WE'D BE FRIENDS FOR LIFE. HE JUST WAS THAT TYPE OF MAN. I HAVE A PICTURE OF ANDY ON THE WALL ABOVE MY DESK ALONG WITH A SIGNED HOCKEY CARD. I LOOK AT BOTH SEVERAL TIMES A WEEK AND I ALWAYS SMILE AND THINK OF THE MANY GREAT TIMES WE HAD. ANDY WAS A TRULY UNFORGETABLE PERSON AND THAT WILL REMAIN IN THE HEART OF ALL THAT KNEW HIM. SLEEP WELL MY FRIEND UNTIL I SEE YOU AGAIN,LEN.

For more than 2 generations of Portlanders, you were a larger than life piece of our sporting history. I'm fond of meeting you again about a decade ago. We've missed you for years and will continue to miss you forever. You were one of the greatest class-act gentlemen on ice and off the ice! I hope you get in a few good shifts up there!

I am deeply sorry for your loss,please let cherished memories of Andrew warm your heart and bring you comfort Isaiah 61:1,2 "God is close to the brokenhearted, and comforts all who mourn."

It's really hard to say goodbye to such a great
old friend.Since the first time I met Andy,I was
aware that we'd always be close.We shared a lot of
golf together and I can't imagine a better person
to spend time with. Here's hoping that you find
many wide fairways buddy.God bless the man with
the biggest heart I ever met.My whole family will
keep you in our thoughts always.

Thanks for the great memories Andy.
You and the Buckaroos kept me entertained as a child. JS
