For the last two years of college at ISU, Andy was my best friend. He even stood up with me in my wedding. Last night, I was telling my wife that the one person I regret not keeping in touch with over the years was Andy. So, we started searching and I came across his obituary from 6 years ago. It was really a punch in the gut. We had a lot of great memories from college. My name is Keith Blair. I currently reside in Peoria, IL. My belated condolences to the family. Feel free to text or call me at 217-490-0022.
