RIP Andy.
One of the most good natured and gentle fellas I ever worked with.

A 12 division legend.

His night shift cook up roast dinners were a thing of beauty. If you were his station reserve on night shift you knew it was going to be a great week. As all his friends and co-workers knew Andy had one big flaw which he conquered in his latter years.
