I sure wish I had the pleasure of knowing him.

My thoughts and prayers go out to Andy's family and to the Minnesota
chapter.

Thank you

Indeed, Andy was a staunch Federationist.  He was a long time member and
contributor to the Resolutions committee, all during the seventies,
eighties, nineties, and even, I believe through 2000.  You always knew where
he stood on NFB issues, and he was always ready to talk and yes, even mentor
those newer members and conventioneers.

Andy will certainly be remembered and missed.

I remember Andy as always being willing to do whatever was needed to help
blind people. He was a religiously devout person. He will be greatly missed
by all who new him.
