Andrew Laska

To the Laska family and Diane. Nothing but good memories of Andy from my days at Assumption. He was a class act and will be missed by all. He had a very full life. Deepest Sympathy!

Sorry to hear of Andy's passing. He was such a great man. Andy kept my broadcast career going for another 25 years!

Diane & Family -
I just received the notice of your Dad's passing and just wanted to send my sincere condolences to you. He was a great coach during his tenure at AC. I'm sure he will be remembered by many of the students he worked with and influenced. He leaves a wonderful legacy as he moves onto a greater, eternal life.

I am away and will be unable to attend his services, but rest assured your Dad and your entire family will be in my prayers.

To Diane And the Laska family, Andy was a class act who treated everyone well. He was a humble man with great love for his Assumption family. I remember how well he treated our soccer team during my time there. Deepest condolences to you.

To the Lask family,

Andy was a class act from start to finish, put Assumption on the collegiate basketball map, games against Providence, Holy Cross and the like. His legacy will live long with all the Greyhound family.

Eileen and I extend our sincere and deepest sympathies to you and your family on the passing of your father. He was a total professional in all his roles with Assumption athletics as well as caring role model to me and many of the class of 1969. I clearly remember the night that he won his 200 career victory and the humility that he demonstrated. May God Bless Andy Laska and his family
