I worked with Andy once at the RBC Center, and thought he was one of the nicest folks there. He was so very kind and helpful, with a smile on his face! Sincere thoughts and condolences to Andy's family.

Andy and I worked together at IBM. We were co- Managers in Manassas and transferred to RTP at the same time and we both joined IBM at the same time as well. Andy was a joy to be around and we shared many laughs together. He was a loving father and husband. Andy will be missed but his legacy lives on. Linda may God provide you strength as you and your family progress in God's love.

I worked with Andy at IBM when he moved from Manassas , VA to RTP, NC. We were in the same dept. He was a reliable and trustworthy coworker and a strong family man who loved his wife and children. My deepest condolences to his wife Linda, the children, and the rest of his family. May God grant you strength and peace in this time of great lost.

I worked for Andy a couple of times at the RBC Center and he was the kindest person. He spoke so proudly and lovingly of his wife, children and granddaughter. Your family is in our thoughts and prayers. Pam Mattocks.

Andy will always be my brother in Scouting. He was my mentor in many ways. I always knew I could turn to Andy for help. We were friends for 15 years. I will miss him very much. I pray for Linda, Stephen, Tim and Heather that they will be at peace remembering all the good times with their father.
