There are so many wonderful memories of Uncle Andy, it’s hard to pick one. He was a thoughtful and kind soul, and spent many years making Brianna, Rebecca and I laugh uncontrollably as kids. Most memorable was the multi-year joke that we would get a “cold potato” from Santa. Sure enough under the tree one Christmas, presented like a foil-wrapped candy, was a cold potato - From ‘Santa’. I’ll never forget his cheeky grin.

He was equally good at providing empathy as he was at making you laugh. He made everyone feel cared for and special. We will always miss our sweet and witty Uncle.
