Andy was the Stage Manager on Family Ties for it's entire run, and I can tell you he was as much a part of the heart and soul of that show for those working on it as any of the actors. A consummate professional, with so many years experience in television that it made everyone on the set feel secure and confident. We were in good hands. A lovely man, I'm glad I got a chance to work with him.

I will remember him as smiling and full of energy. One particular day stands out for me. He took Leslie and me to an Ice Cream Parlor on sunset Blvd in the 60's. We each got an enormous hot fudge sundae and watched the "hippies" go by our table. Peace and blessings to his family as you process this loss. He had a remarkable life and will be missed .
