Dear Suzanne, Lily, Grace and extended family, I´m so saddened by Andy´s sudden passage, and I´m sending my condolences and and a piece of my heart to you all.

The last time I saw him was at the Greenbrae shopping plaza in 2020. I was visiting with my Mom, who was wintering with my brother, and we had just finished up with a quick lunch. We bumped into Andy as we were departing. He was decked out head to toe in Wolverine garb (hat, shirt, and likely coordinating pants and, quite possibly, footwear). What I remember is how good it was to see him after a number of lapsed years, how kind he was to my Mom, and how gracious and, most of all, lit he was. His genuine smile, his warm and engaging energy.

He will remain sorely missed and will forever never taken for granted.
