Andy was a wonderful guy; fun loving with a zest for life. We enjoyed his visits to California and our time spend with Andy, Edie at Ed and Eva's. We wil miss Andy, his great sense of humor, his stories and his love of all things Italian.

Andy was truly "one of a kind". I first met Andy 35 years ago in England. He invited us to a party of his. He and Edy were so hospitable. I always enjoyed my conversations with Andy. He always made me laugh. He will truly be missed. Recently I was at a "get-together" with several AAFES retirees....we made a "special toast" to Andy. Heaven will not be the same with the addition of Andy :) Take care my friend, JerryJohnston

We are going to miss Andy! He loved life, loved his family, and found enjoyment with his friend. He was a good story teller and a better listener. The world will be just a little bit duller, a little less fun without him. Peg and I will miss him. John and Peg Mawhinney

He patiently endured hours of guitar playing (how many times did he hear the intro to Metallica’s “One”?).

It is hard to think of two parents—-not just Andy, but also Edie—-who...

Aunt Edie, Michael, Susan and Mark; please accept our deep condolences and prayers for Uncle Andy’s passing. We pray for comfort from our families, friends and Lord as we journey together in mourning. We ask the Lord grant you His light of love during this time of grief and lovingly accept Uncle Andy with outstretched arms; gently embracing Uncle Andy into His eternal kingdom. Amen.
