As another year passes without our beloved friend, let us be mindful of the example he left us. Let us honor Andy by being kind to others, especially strangers. Let us celebrate friendships by being caring toward one another. Let us allow our faith to steer our ship into whatever waters we find ourselves in. Let's just do the "next right thing" and make those around us feel blessed. With fond memories and a prayer, Karyn O'Toole

Thinking of you across the miles with fondest remembrance of Andy. I feel blessed to have known him and to have shared so many special times. He was always the sign of a calm presence, seeing what needed to be done or who needed help and responding accordingly. For the many times, he got us all "to church on time," may he be rewarded in eternal life. Fondly, Karyn O'Toole, NADAA

Remembering a dear friend as the one year mark of his passing comes around. Andy was so appreciated by all of us in NADAA because he understood the hard work involved in all of the performing arts and he appreciated the challenges Kathleen and her colleagues in dance face everyday. Andy was always held in high regard with appreciation for his generosity to serve his church and the community.

I have known Kathleen and Andy a long time and I must comment on how wonderful they always have been.
If there was a job to be done, you could call Kathleen and Andy help do what they could do to make things right.
I always enjoyed seeing Kathleen's dance shows, and Andy would always be there to help out any way he could.
I think Andy passed on way too soon,however Kathleen is still with us and she will keep the spirit of Andy alive in everything she does.
Blessings,
Ceci

On behalf of the National Association of Dance and Affiliated Arts (NADAA), I would like to extend our deepest sympathy to Kathleen and Andy's sons and family. We have been privileged to have known Andy as he accompanied Kathleen to NADAA seminars and conventions in Wisconsin, New Jersey, and Connecticut. So helpful, supportive, and kind, Andy never failed to make our events better and brighter. Of the many remarkable traits Andy shared with us, these two come to mind. He loved his wife and did everything he could to support and encourage her work as a dance teacher and her participation in our organization. He was a man who lived his Catholic faith and always made sure that his Catholic friends would get to Mass on convention weekends, especially those of us traveling from out of state.
He quietly and efficiently helped us with our work and he made our problems his concern. We will miss him, for sure.
