Andy and I used to be very close and although we drifted apart and just recently reconnected, he always had and will have a place in my heart. My condolences to the Gilbert family. May you find healing and strength at this sad time.

I haven´t seen Andy since 2008 or so. Despite all that time, I know I´ll miss him.
Had a lot of great times when we were kids. Harry was always hauling us up to the domes for hockey games and hoping we stayed out of trouble. Most of the times we did.

I remember your younger days when you came to visit with your mother and I gave you my bottles and cans because you liked taking them to the redemption center so you would have some extra spending money. Those days are over but God's word says to be absent from the body is to be present with the Lord. Now you are safe and sound in the arms of Jesus. God love you for ever and for ever. Your Uncle Jeff never stopped loving you.
