I met Andre when he was 16 and I lived on Robins Street. He and Malcom Smith QB friend of his. They would come by my house and we would go to robins field to throw and catch football . Over the years we stayed in touch . He was a gentleman first and a good football player. I will miss him and my heart hurts to find out that he died. Thankful to have know him. Love you Andre.

I really enjoyed the time I got to know Mr. Andre (Hammer). We worked together at Millcreek. I'll always remember him saying, "Aw, come on now Mr. T" (what they call me at work. He was always a gentleman. I'll miss him greatly.
