Andrew and I carpooled from the Central West End when he worked as an OD intern for us during the Summer of 2013. I enjoyed his smarts, his quick wit and generous spirit! He is missed!

I'm extremely sad to hear of the loss of such a wonderful man! I had the pleasure of working closely with Andrew for 4 years at the culpeppers in the CWE. His passing is a terrible loss to many who knew him. Deepest sympathy to Andrew's family, you are in our thoughts and prayers from the kernan family.

Mary Ellen, Paul, Jennifer, Michael (Kimberly), Betty, and William,

My heart is heavy beyond ability to articulate your loss. There are no words sufficient to mourn or memorialize your son, brother, and grandson, a beautiful young man, who touched the lives of so many through his presence alone.

Please accept from the depth of my soul, that place where all of us meet, I hold you dearly and closely in my heart.
