I wasn't really that close to Andy, but my friend, Chasity, dated him for a while, and that's how I got to know him. He was a nice, respectable person, and I want his family to know that my prayers are with them.

Dear Sharon, Bob and Emmett, I was thinking about all of you today and hoping that you have found some relief for your grief. I like to think that the people we lose become a part of everything that they loved. Find comfort in knowing that the biggest part of Andy lives on in each of you.
