It's been some time since you passed. I still think of you often, which is why 2 years later I find myself here. You and I had some very good times together for so many years. Our first meeting in 1971 is still vivid in my mind. Your Firebird, my Z24, man I miss those summer evenings. I miss you Yag; I miss your friendship, your sense of humor and your overall presence. Much love, brother. Murph

Mr. Yager refereed many of my games throughout my sports career throughout my childhood and high school. Throughout the years and games, we shared we developed a relationship and bonding like no other. The connection we shared will never be forgotten. Respect was always strong both ways in our relationship and we would always have a smile on our faces every moment we spent together. His soul touched myself as well as many other athletes in New York State. He always was supporting me and pushing me to do my best with everything I did on and off the court/field, providing advice that I was grateful to receive. I will be balling for him, and I will be mentioning his name on my basketball sneakers and football cleats for the rest of my career. Much love, brother. Condolences to the Yager family. Heaven gained a true angel.

I worked in Troy with Andy. Him, Gil and I used to joke, laugh and talk in the mailroom. Andy always had a smile on his face. I'm sorry for your loss, he'll be missed by many that loved him.

To the Yager family: I worked many basketball games with Andy over the past few years and he took a lot of pride on how he did the games. He loved doing football and basketball games and being with the kids. He always gave 100 % no matter what level game he was doing. I will miss reffing with him.

My deepest condolences to the Yager family. I will miss Andy's smile and the way he made everyone feel like family. He made me feel like a brother, and he was. Bob D
