Remember all the times working with Andy and golfing. Even though I was a terrible golfer he enjoyed playing and waiting for me on the course. I traveled with work many times with Andy over the years. Loved fishing and camping at lake Wallenpaupack with him. I consider him my best friend. My condolence to his family. I will miss him. May he rest in peace.
