So sorry to be late with my thoughts of Andy. I attended Charlotte Catholic High along with him in our Junior Year. I was just speaking with my husband today *they were buddies* & I mentioned to him that I always looked at Andy as one of the the kindest classmates we had. Never a bad thing to say about anyone. I admired that about him.
I will always remember him fondly.
Our condolences to his family.
Mary and Phil Lavoie
I knew Andy when he was the basketball coach at Danville Schlarman. I was a reporter for the Danville Commercial-News. Andy was a good Christian man, an excellent teacher and coach, and a wonderful example to the young people he taught and coached. He left us far too soon. I feel fortunate to have known him for a brief time so many years ago. Joel Bussert
