A year ago today we lost you my bro! A day does not go by without missing you. I´m still in disbelief you left us. I talk to you all the time, still playing name that song name in the car that we did. You would´ve turned 70 since you´re gone & you would´ve been mad about it! Mom turned 90 since too! Our hearts have an unrepairable hole and life was forever changed. I´ve waited a year for you to enter my dreams & tell me you´re ok, but I´m still waiting. Are you not ready? I know it´s a little bizarre writing this like you´re having coffee & reading the obits, but... I miss you more today than yesterday. It simply hasn´t gotten easier. Please take care of Pop & Deidre and know how much I love and miss all of you! Your loving sister, Lori

My deepest sympathy to the family. I have many fond memories growing up next to the Tomasic family in Fullerton. In particular, I remember how much he loved his '67 GTO. My condolences to Elaine and Lori who I remember fondly. Rest in peace Andy!

I don´t think I would be the man I am today without you Andy. The moment I heard the news regret sunk in for all of the times that I was "too busy" this year to get out your way to visit. I miss you man. I love you. I wish I would´ve found a way to build another car with you or even just go out fishing. If anyone reads this, please force yourself to make time for those you love. At some point, it will be too late.

Met Andy Jr., through my late Dad and his Dad, years ago, at a Baseball Old-Timers function at South Mt. Grove! He sure livened up things, like Andy Sr.! R.I.P.

Just the other day I was dusting a cabinet where I keep the little horse that Andy gave to me so very many years ago. It always made me think of him and I said to myself " I'll never part with this pony. So pretty. In fact the last reunion we had I reminded him that he gave me that horse. He was so surprised that I remembered and he didn't. Ever I will always remember the beautiful' gentle spirit that he was and will always be in my heart. One can only imagine the torment he suffered because of MS and pray now that his spirit is free to be. God rest you and keep sweet cousin may your spirit fly! Love you cousin Joannie

I had the privilege of knowing Andrew for many years. We would cook, bake, listen to music and play chess. We took turns winning. Andrew also loved playing his guitars when I'd be with him and sometimes we would paint on canvas. He was my Best Friend. My deepest condolences to Andrew's mother and family. He will be dearly missed. Donna
