Big Brother, Andy... Even though he and my Sister Jeri divorced, I always considered Andy my Brother. He took my Brother Mike and I fishing... When he worked for the BLM, we would go below Folsom damn and fish right off the damn and various other places only an employee could go. We caught huge trout and catfish! His house was THE party house when Mike an I were teenagers. Nuff said. He sold me his '67 Camaro for cheap since it was tied up in the divorce. I had the nicest car in High School. We visited Andy on several trips to the coast, he even came to Caspar Beach a couple times. He always had to leave early, no matter where the party was, to get home to his dogs. I think back to the gold panning trips, Jack's Shack, crashing out at his house - and that toupee he wore for awhile :), I get a warm fuzzy. I'll miss him.

I met Andy when I was working at a gas station in Roseville. He always had a laugh or two and lit up the room whenever he came in. We worked together during the summer of 1974 when we transferred U-Haul trucks for different dealers, and Andy always made the job fun and adventurous with his wit and humor. Sadly I lost contact with Andy several years ago, but never forgot about him. My condolences and prayers for his family on his passing.

I'm sorry I always ran away from you. When I see you on the flip side I promise I won't.
