To Andy's family I'd like to add my sympathy and condolences. I had the pleasure to sing with Andy in the singing group The Choraliers at Maine West Twp HS. We had a lot of fun, and we had a great time when we formed a barbershop quartet called the Four Fifths, and performed at school and in the community. He was friendly and well-liked, and will always be fondly remembered.
