Sadly I had lost touch with Andy these past few years but I will forever revisit many fond memories as they relate to work and fun (music & boxing). I am so sorry for the sorrow and deep pain his Family is now experiencing.

I had the privilege of meeting and working with Andy as fellow board members of a social services organization, Diversified Community Services. So very sad to hear of his passing. He was a wonderful person and amazing asset to our Board; and he will be missed dearly. Condolences to Andy's family and friends. Wishing you peace and comfort during this time. Rest in peace and power, Andy!

Here we are together
Will we wake at dawn
Do you want to face it
Or bow your head & be gone

I want to Live Forever
Stay awake until dawn
Live my Life for adventure
Sail away when it's done

The End is always lurking
Behind the scenes we go
Have yourself a tall one
A toast to those below

I want to Live Forever
Wanna shoot for the stars
Live my Life for adventure
Sail away into dark

Wish we could have two Lives
Live full every day
Look up to the Heavens
Then bow your head & pray

I want to Live Forever
Wanna touch the sky
Live my Life for adventure
Sail away when you die...
