Bev and family, I knew Andy long ago and always thought he was a very good man, actually the best of the four siblings. May God give you peace until you are joined in heaven.
I first met Andy back in 1977 or 78. I was thinking of leaving the National Guard. He was easy to talk to so we began to talk and while we talked I began washing dishes. It’s funny because he convinced me to stay in, in the same amount of time to finish the dishes. He was great, always ready with a joke or good word. He will be missed.
