Andy was a long time friend & coworker, very gifted photographer with a cute sense of humor who introduced me to the world of Jazz, how to appreciate wine, and a comfort during tough times. You will be in my fond memories and sorely missed.

Andy was a great and valued friend of his many Wednesday lunch friends from Lockheed days. Always ready with advice about wine, cameras, Cadillacs or whatever, his counsel and friendship will be sorely missed.
