I am so sorry to hear of Andy's passing. I worked with Andy and Sue a number of years and grew up around and attended Walcott school. Andy was always first in line to tease me and give me a hard time, but I was always invited to spend Walcott Days with him and his family. I will greatly miss Andy but will retain many years of fond memories from our time together. Condolences to Sue and his family.

I’ve known Andy since 2nd Grade and have many good memories of him. He truly never met a stranger and was the friendliest person I ever met. Whenever he saw me, he would come trotting over to me to share the Walcott gossip and make me laugh. I will never forget him and his absence will leave a big hole in many hearts. I’ll miss him terribly and his death makes the world a little less bright. RIP, dear Andy!
