A great man will truly be missed. He always had a smile and a hug for me, every time I ran into him. I will help celebrate his new life! I never once saw Andy in a bad mood, and he always lifted my spirits on my busiest and hectic days....
I will miss him. My prayers are with the entire Vanore Family.
